*NEW YEAR SPEECH BY HON ABDULRASAQ ASIRU IJAGBEMI, THE EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN, YAGBA EAST LGA*

01-01-2022

My good people of Yagba East LGA.

First, I'll like to use this medium to thank and praise God Almighty who in His infinite mercies saw us through the year 2021 and has given us the opportunity to witness the beginning of a new year.

2. The year 2021 came with its challenges ranging from insecurity, global economy meltdown, resurgence of covid-19 pandemic e.t.c. But even in the face of all these, we're progressing as a people.

3. I have no iota of doubt that this new year 2022 is with vast opportunities, which we must be ready to harness as a government and as a people for the betterment of our society. Our budget for the year 2022 tagged; "Budget of Consolidation" is a reflection of our unrelenting efforts and determination to further deliver the dividends of democracy to the good people of Yagba East.

4. The primary purpose of government is to secure lives and properties of her citizens. I want to reaffirm my commitment to creating a peaceful atmosphere, which will invariably promote socio-economic and encourage foreign investors.

5. I appreciate the cooperation and the unalloyed support I've been enjoying from the my people since this administration came on board. I look forward to a more robust cooperation and support this new year. I equally commend the efforts and commitment of our security agents, especially the level of bravery they displayed during the recent bank robbery in our neighbouring Local Government, which led to the apprehension and arrest of suspected robbers.

Note that security is not a one man job. All hands must be on deck. We must all be security conscious. Citizens must complement the efforts of government by willing to assist in giving useful and timely information to security agents and report any suspicious persons in order to make our society safe!

Wishing you a prosperous new year.

God bless Yagba East LGA
