The award more or less coincided with the confirmation by the National Bureau of Statistics that Ogun State, with its N100.9bn revenue profile in 2021, is one of the states with the highest internally generated revenue nationwide, coming only after Nigeria’s economic capital, Lagos; the FCT and Rivers State, a top oil-producing state.
In view of the fact that awards in this country often tend to be inspired largely by political patronage, it is legitimate to ask precisely what the governor did to win this exalted award, and that is actually the meat of this piece. First, Prince Abiodun was able to create an enabling environment for business to thrive in the state.
In June this year, the Federal Government recognized Governor Abiodun’s efforts to grow small businesses, honouring him with the award of Best State in Micro, Small and Medium Scale Enterprises Policy Support for the Year 2022 at the Presidential Villa. Prior to this, MSME Business Clinics had been organised in the state with more than 3,844 entrepreneurs in attendance.
