According to Titilola-Sodo, “This bus gift to the Labour Union has further established the love and compassion of Governor Makinde for the working people; we are extremely honoured by this gift.

“Some governors wanted to change our monthly wages to privilege but Governor Makinde on assumption of office made it clear that it is our right and he is fulfilling this with unprecedented promptness.

“And I have it on good record that this gesture of given bus to Labour in the state was last experienced during the regime of former Late Governor Lam Adesina.

“We will continue to deliver our statutory responsibility diligently for the betterment of the State and the People so that the State can continue to be a pacesetter while others follow”.
