Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State on Tuesday said the monthly Internally Generated Revenue of the state had increased to over N1.5 billion.
He said the monthly IGR was previously less than N700 million but had more than doubled due to the initiatives of the present administration. The governor also hailed Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, former Lagos State Governor and National leader of the All Progressives Congress for his pioneering role at building an economic base which pushed up the IGR of Lagos State as one of the biggest economies in Africa.
Earlier, the Chairman of the association, Mathew Akinbileje, had lauded Mr Akeredolu on delivery of democracy dividends to the people of the state.
