Oyedokun maintained that despite the ravaging COVID-19 pandemic and it's aftermath, Governor Makinde remained focused and he has leveraged the setback to improve the health care system which he said the benefits have been evident across the 33 local government areas in the state.

He also expressed the confidence that, going by the performance of Engr Seyi Makinde administration in the last two years in office, the future is, indeed, bright for the state.

A statement by the Media Aide to the Chairman, Femi Ajiboye, quoted Oyedokun, as also appreciating residents of the state for the trust they have reposed in Engr Seyi Makinde led administration which he said was evident as the PDP won all the Chairmanship and Councillorship seats in the just concluded local government election thereby returning democracy to the grassroots level.
