Outgoing Governor of Oyo State, Mr Abiola Ajimobi has said his one regret after 8 years in the state is not being allowed to do all he planned to do.
He disclosed that the people of the state lacked patience and understanding, and that affected his service to them majorly.
His words, “I think I regret the fact that I have not been able to do everything I wanted to do. I wish our people could be more understanding, could be more patient, but they feel that any time you try to make a change, people resist change even if it is good for them.
“I wish I had been in politics 20 years ago.”
“I want to thank President Buhari for the support he has given all the states, particularly during the period of scarcity of funds to execute our projects, to pay salaries, to meet the socio-economic development demands.
“I am going to Umrah to thank God. When I came in, I pleaded with God to give me the opportunity to serve peacefully and that He did.
“I also want to thank the people of Oyo State for allowing me to be the first governor to do two terms of eight years; it has never happened in Oyo State.’’
