Ondo Lays Foundation For World-Class Cultural Centre

The executive governor of Ondo State, Olusegun Mimiko has laid a foundation for a world-class architectural master piece, international cultural and event centre, at Akure, the State capital.

The governor, while speaking at the foundation stone laying ceremony of the centre known as “Dome” said that the present administration believes that no other project  to showcase the new identify could rank higher in priority than the centre, which is a world-class architectural design.

Mimiko at the ground breaking ceremony of the centre also noted that his administration in the last 10 months had been engaged in setting new standards of governance.

According to him, “We have been using fresh initiatives in programmes design and re-engineered a state identity through attitudinal reorientation and a timeless logo.”

He said that all these have been done in their quest to project the new state identity and also to give a masses oriented slant to the state developmental efforts and initiative in the short and long-run.

The governor also posited that it was a matter of public acknowledgement that in the intervening 33 years, since the creation of the state till now, that government has metamorphosed from being a collection of single digit ministries to a much more bigger institution with the attendant explosion in staff and personnel matters.
