Engr. Maaroof Ogundipe, Chairman Obokun LGA in his remarks extolled Oyebamiji’s virtues as a decent and God-fearing politician, a financial expert with deep sense of responsibilities and responsiveness who has contributed immensely to the economic stability of Osun while he served diligently as Commissioner of Finance for two consecutive terms without any anti-graft/money laundering cases on his neck.
