Akeredolu who was represented at the event by his Deputy, Hon Lucky Aiyedatiwa said, component units making up the Country has been passing through many challenges.

“The appropriation of the source of wealth of various States by agencies of the Federal Government is the fundamental reason for retardation”.

According to him, “the Country continue to pretend that all is well, when it is dithering on the brink of collapse” .

Continued, the Governor said, “the system which allows a very strong central government and weak dependencies is not capable of development” .

Canvassing for power devolution for competitive development, Governor Akeredolu declared that, “power must devolve to the federating units for the Country to lay claims to being a federal State” .

“Let every State determine the salaries and allowances of it’s officials, let the State control their resources and pay tax to the center” , he said.

In his welcome address at the event, the Chairman of RMAFC, Alhaji Muhammed Bello Shehu represented by Ondo State commissioner at RMAFC, Chief Tokunbo Ajasin, acknowledged the support of Ondo State Governor for hosting the event .

“The commission is indeed grateful for your kind gestures”, he said.

“The aim of the review exercise is to achieve an all-inclusive exercise that will capture all political, public and Judicial Office holders at all levels in the Country who were hitherto not captured” , he said.

Representatives of Ogun, Oyo, Ekiti, Osun, Lagos and Ondo State government were at the public hearing.
