A New Era Soars: Hon. Olasubomi Agesin (SAFE) Welcomes President Tinubu to Iperu Remo for the Historic Commissioning of Gateway International Airport
IPERU REMO, OGUN STATE – Today, April 4, 2026, marks a watershed moment in the history of our dear state. It is with profound joy and a deep sense of accomplishment that I, Hon. Olasubomi Agesin (SAFE), the Liaison Officer to the Governor for Ikenne Constituency, welcome the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, His Excellency Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR), to the heart of our constituency.
A Visionary Leap for the Gateway State
The commissioning of the Ogun State International Airport and the official launch of Gateway Air are not merely achievements in infrastructure; they are the fulfillment of a bold vision. Under the transformative leadership of our Executive Governor, His Excellency Prince Dapo Abiodun, Ogun State has moved from being a primary industrial hub to becoming a global logistics powerhouse.
As the Liaison Officer to the Governor for this constituency, I have witnessed firsthand the dedication, meticulous planning, and political will required to bring this "Gateway to the World" to fruition right here in Iperu Remo. This project stands as a shining example of what is possible when government intent meets the aspirations of the people.
Connecting the "Renewed Hope" Agenda to Ikenne
The presence of Mr. President today underscores the strategic importance of this airport to the national economy. By linking our local industries to international markets, this facility directly supports the Renewed Hope agenda, promising job creation, enhanced trade, and sustainable economic security.
We are honored that President Tinubu has chosen to stand with us today to witness the "official take-off" of a project that will benefit generations of Nigerians.
A Message to My Fellow Constituents
To the industrious people of the Ikenne Constituency and Iperu Remo: this is your moment. As your Liaison Officer, my primary goal has always been to ensure that the progress of the state government is felt at the grassroots level. There is no greater evidence of that progress than the world-class facility being commissioned today. This airport will breathe new life into our local economy, create thousands of direct and indirect jobs for our youth, and elevate the prestige of our ancestral home on the global stage.
Conclusion: A Future Built on Safety and Prosperity
Today, we celebrate more than just asphalt and engines; we celebrate the spirit of the Gateway people. We thank Governor Dapo Abiodun for his unwavering commitment to our constituency and President Tinubu for his fatherly support of Ogun State's development.
The future of Ikenne, Iperu, and indeed all of Ogun State, is soaring to new heights. Together, we are building a future that is prosperous, connected, and SAFE.
Congratulations to His Excellency, Prince Dapo Abiodun! Congratulations to the People of Ikenne Constituency! Congratulations to Ogun State!
Signed, Hon. Olasubomi Agesin (SAFE) Liaison Officer to the Governor, Ikenne Constituency
