He said the programme encapsulated provision of welfare items like foodstuffs, funds and counseling sessions for the wellbeing of indigent and vulnerable people, which would give them the capacity to deal with the demands and challenges of everyday life, as well as boosting their confidence and energy to partake in the implementation and sustainability of micro-projects in their communities.

“These supports are granted to over 12,000 among the most vulnerable in our communities to enhance their ability to deal with demands and challenges of everyday life as well as boosting their confidence and energy to participate in the implementation of micro-projects in their communities.

“It is pertinent to appreciate God and the amiable Governor of Oyo State, Engr. Seyi Makinde for making these efforts become successful through funding and encouragement, under the NG-CARES programme, the Agency has facilitated the implementation of 251 micro-projects in 114 communities across the 33 local government areas of Oyo State, while over 355,000 beneficiaries have being recorded for these micro-projects,” he added.

The General Manager, OYCSDA, Mr Salau Jelili reiterated the commitment of the agency to care for the ‘poorest of the poor’ category in the State through interventions in critical sectors of life with micro-projects, while the psychosocial support programme was meant to add a welfare fillip to the households, to enhance social, economic, physical and psychological well-being of the vulnerable population.

He charged the beneficiaries to continue to give needed support to the Seyi Makinde-led administration, so as to keep benefiting from dividends of democracy.

Present at the event was a strong ally of the State Governor, Hon. Babatunde Tijani (Double-T), the Executive Chairman, Lagelu Local Government, Hon. Mudashiru Kamorudeen, the State Woman Leader of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaja Wulemot Ibitoye and a member of Oyo State’s Pilgrims’ Board, Alhaja Fatimoh Oluwa, among others.
