Hon.Majekodunmi, while addressing the members of staff appreciated their unalloyed support and cooperation since the commencement of his administration which was sworn-in by the Executive Governor of Ogun State Prince Dapo Abiodun MFR on the 26th July, 2021. 

 The Council Helmsman reiterated his commitment to serve and fulfilling the promises made during his electioneering campaign and ensure his administration ameliorate the hardship and suffering of the masses at the grass root, he lamented the issue of paucity of funds which has been hindering his government to give fully dividends of democracy back to the people.

 In his response, the Head of Local Government Administration (HOLGA), Mr.Wole Adeosun appreciated the number one citizen of Abeokuta South Local Government and his cabinet for dimming it fit to intimate all the staffers on the stewardship of his one year in office and enjoined members of staff to think outside the box as much is still needed to be done. 

He therefore assured the chairman that there will be improvement on IGR generation, a synergy between the Political functionaries and Career Officers for better outputs. While urging Legislators to come up with bye-law that will support and improve revenue generation in the council area. 

 The Chairman of Nigeria Union of Local Government Employee, Abeokuta South Chapter, (NULGE) Comr.Odunayo Ogunwemimo appreciated the Executive and the Legislative arms of Government and charged the staffers to work in tandem with Majekodunmi's led administration as they can only break more grounds and move the council to a greater height.
