There is no place like home for holidays. This must have prompted the honourable minister for health, prof. Isaac Adewole, the member of House of Representatives, Hon. Ajibola Famurewa and Osun commissioner for Innovation, Science and Technology to be in Ilesa and took time to visit places on the popular boxing day holiday.
After the breakfast get together at Prof. Okunmadewa's the entourage proceeded to Omo Ijesa the country home of the Minister. Where he was welcomed into a community meeting directed by Chief Akin Oluwakuyide, the Asiwaju of Omo Ijesa. At the meeting the pressing needs of the inhabitants of the community were presented before the trio of the minister Prof. Isaac Adewole, Hon. Ajibola Famurewa and Engr. Remi Omowaiye. The needs center on youth empowerment/employment, good and accessible road into the community and the leaders imploded the minister to turn around the lots of Omo Ijesa like late Oba Oladele Olasore did to Iloko Ijesa.
The next point of call after Omo Ijesa was Erinmo Ijesa where the minister and his team were hosted by the Elerinmo of Erinmo Ijesa, Oba (Dr) Michael Odunayo Ajayi at his palace. The royal father showered encomium on Hon. Ajibola Famurewa whom he described as a man of the people because he frequently seen at home even when his assignment aligned him with Abuja. He (the Elerinmo) led the minister and his team to the Erinmo Community Health Centre and the site of the Erinmo Hospital. The minister promised to uplift and equip the health centre adequately within six months and Engr. Remi Omowaiye was assigned to liaise with Osun commissioner for Health to see what can be done on the construction work of the hospital.
