*Also issued loans amounting to millions to his consistuents under the interest-free cooperative scheme in conjuction with DROMI World.
A thousand questions must have been on the mind of onlookers and observers at the yaba police station yesterday, divisional headquarters, where Rep. Abiola Peter Makinde, honourable representing Ondo East and West Federal Consistuency was officially commisioning the patrol and response vehicles he was gifting to the Nigerian Police Force. A feeling of dismay and curiosity, perhaps, innocently seeking to know what relentlessly drive the good Honorable and his amiable wife, Dr Rhoda Makinde, convener of DROMI.
Present at the event were notable dignitaries alongside Hon Makinde. The Ondo State Police Commisioner, Former Ondo State Commisioner, Chief Mrs, Deaconess Lola Fagbemi, chairmen of Ondo East and West Local government, a representative of the Osemawe of Ondo, Oba Kiladejo, Jilo III, DPOs from Okeigbo, Ile-Oluji, and the commandant of the Amotekun Security Network, Ondo state, also graced the event.
Barely weeks after three students were sponsored for overseas education to the acceptance of thousands of consistuents, three to Norway another two helped to India for the same life-changing purpose,Hon Abiola Makinde and his wife has again beat the odds by delivering 4 patrol vehicles to the doorstep of the Nigeria Police Force and its four divisions across Ondo East and West, Yaba, Enu-owa, Fagun and Bolounduro divisions. As if that wasn’t enough, immediately after the presentation of the patrol vehicles to the Nigeria Police Force, received by the Commissioner of Police, Ondo state, Hon Abiola Makinde proceeded to the Oba Adesanoye civic centre to commence issuance of interest-free loan under the cooperative scheme where consistuents, both young and old were given thousands of naira to be returned at zero interest and collateral, all done in good faith.
Before his speech at both events, Hon Abiola Makinde, deputy chairman, House Committee on Federal Character held a one minute silence for his late colleague, Hon Omolafe Adedayo,who represented Akure North and South Federal Consistuency, while maintaining that though, he was mourning, the work of representation must continue.
Hon Makinde admonished the police authorities to adequately maintain the vehicles and not deviate from the purpose for which the vehicles were given to them which is to serve the Ondo people. The Commisioner of Police, who led several other police hierarchy to the event thanked the good Honorable and expressed how this show of support will help the police, in no small measure, combat crime and continue to keep Ondo East and West safe and the whole state by extension. He urged political leaders and well-meaning citizens to rise up to security situation as only with all hands on deck, can the police function maximally and reach their full potentials.
