Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has called on elected leaders at all levels of government to recommit to good governance to entrench democracy.
Speaking while hosting Governor Ademola Adeleke at his Abeokuta Hilltop home, Obasanjo cautioned leaders to be loyal to the people by meeting and satisfying their people.
” What is my advice to leaders? Well, let them serve the people. Let them ensure governance. That is the way to make democracy strong”, the former leader affirmed.
Citing positive development in Osun state under Governor Adeleke, the elder statesman repeated his earlier commendation of the Osun state Governor, declaring that leaders have obligations to deliver democratic dividends to the people.
Responding to an invitation to commission projects in Osun state, the former Head of State who accepted the invitation also tasked aides of leaders to be loyal to their bosses for them to perform.
According to the Otta farmer, leaders need a cohesive team to perform and the aides must demonstrate absolute loyalty to their leaders for successful governance.
