Gov. Ademola Adeleke of Osun has declared the resolve of his administration to restore the lost glory of the ancient city of Ile-Ife.
Adeleke pledged during a courtesy visit to the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, Ojaja, in Ile-Ife on Tuesday. The governor noted that anytime he passed through the town, he was not happy due to the level of decay in terms of infrastructure.

Oba Ogunwusi called for more good roads within Ife and its environs among other developments in the area.
