“Creation of Ibadan State is our priority. That is our major concern. It is long overdue. Despite the fact that railway line passed through Ibadan, no indigene of Ibadan was named after a terminal. We have to look at the selection of people in government too.

“But our major concern is the creation of Ibadan State. We have been clamouring for it. We want the government to look at the issue of land grabbing too. We want the government to do something on it.

“We want the government to look at the issue of agriculture. We want the government to bring a policy that will help for reservation of some lands for developmental projects.”
