The Senator representing Ogun East Senatorial District, Otunba Gbenga Daniel has commended President Bola Tinubu on his continuous efforts in securing and safeguarding Nigeria territorial waters.
Otunba Gbenga Daniel in a letter of appreciation sent to His Excellency, Prince Dapo Abiodun, on the issuance and presentation of Certificate of Occupancy for the Navy Forward Operational Base in Abigi, Ogun Waterside Local Government, reveals that the singular gesture of the governor will enable construction work to start on the site in earnest as they have been able to capture funding of up to two billion naira (N2b) for the project in the 2024 Appropriation through the support of the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Nigerian Armed Forces, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The former Governor of Ogun State revealed that the present site was donated by the Community through the traditional rulers in the town several years ago for the Navy Hydrographic purposes but where not much activities actually took place.
His emergence as the Chairman, Senate Committee on Navy provided the needed opportunity to once again kickstart the project with an expanded dimension.
However, OGD mentioned some notable individuals whose support and encouragement on this project cannot be overlooked.
Most importantly is His Royal Majesty, the Awujale and Paramount Ruler of Ijebuland, Oba S.K. Adetona whose untiring calls and interventions are of significance.
The immense contributions of the various traditional rulers in Ogun Waterside, Ojotumoro of Abigi, Osobia of Makun and a host of others on this project is very well appreciated.
“Their fears and anxieties about a possible loss of this project to any other states or locations has finally been rested. The apprehension from the loss of the Dangote Refinery to Lagos a few years ago is well understood.”
OGD also heaps praises on the Chief of Naval Staff, Admiral Emmanuel Ogalla and his entire team in the Navy as they have proven to be great compatriots on this journey.
“They have demonstrated great courage in safeguarding the nation’s maritime assets and exhibiting unparalleled partnership on this project.”
OGD and the good people of Ogun East also gives special thanks to His Excellency Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR for his untiring effort at securing our territorial waters and without whose support, this project will not materialise.
