Chairman of Abeokuta North Local Government, Prince Adebayo Ayorinde, has restated his administration’s commitment towards improving the standard of living of his constituents.
While noting that women and youth empowerment remain one of the cardinal points of his administration aimed at sustaining empowerment programs to improve the socio-economic status of the residents.

During the programme, Ayorinde presented 1,000 pieces of ‘Back to School’ backpacks to primary schools in the LG; facilitated the presentation of six new tricycles to women in the LG; huge cash donations to the indigenes; and sponsorship of health insurance scheme for 50 beneficiaries.
