Vision for Oyo State

One state. Eight pillars. A serious plan.

These are the commitments we will be measured against. Each one is costed, sequenced and assignable — not aspirational, not open-ended.

Pillar 1

Security & Safety

Every community safe. Every citizen protected.

Restore trust between citizens and law enforcement through community policing, modern intelligence infrastructure, and rapid-response corridors across Ibadan and rural Oyo.

Signed commitments

  • Strengthen Amotekun with training, welfare and tech
  • Deploy state-wide CCTV corridors on major highways
  • Stand up a dedicated farmer-herder mediation authority
  • 24/7 emergency response dispatch in every LGA
Pillar 2

Education & Skills

From classroom to career — no child left behind.

Raise Oyo's schools to global standards, with a decisive focus on STEM, digital literacy and vocational pathways that match the jobs of the next decade.

Signed commitments

  • Renovate 1,000 primary schools in the first 1,000 days
  • Pay WAEC/NECO fees for every public SS3 student
  • Launch a state coding & AI skills corps for youth
  • Partner UI, LAUTECH & TASUED on applied research grants
Pillar 3

Agriculture & Food

Feed Oyo. Feed Nigeria. Earn from the world.

Turn Oyo's fertile belt into West Africa's breadbasket with mechanisation, guaranteed off-take, and value-added agro-processing clusters in every senatorial district.

Signed commitments

  • Three agro-processing SEZs (Oke-Ogun, Oyo-North, Ibarapa)
  • Cluster tractor hubs + subsidised inputs
  • Farmers' insurance and off-take guarantees
  • Reinvest cocoa/cashew export earnings into rural roads
Pillar 4

Health for All

Dignified, affordable care in every LGA.

A primary-care-first strategy that brings the clinic within a 20-minute walk for every family, backed by digital records and a world-class teaching tertiary network.

Signed commitments

  • Upgrade 351 PHCs to 24-hour operations
  • Universal maternal and under-5 care
  • Oyo Health Insurance for informal-sector workers
  • Retain talent: housing + continuous training for health workers
Pillar 5

Youth & Jobs

The next Oyo is built by its young people.

Create pathways — not slogans — for the 1.2 million young people in Oyo through start-up capital, apprenticeships, sport and creative economy investment.

Signed commitments

  • ₦10bn Oyo Youth Fund: grants, loans, accelerators
  • Creative hubs in Ibadan, Ogbomoso and Saki
  • State sports academy and football league revival
  • Graduate-to-work guarantee via industry partnerships
Pillar 6

Infrastructure & Transport

Roads that connect. A state that moves.

Rebuild Oyo's arteries: intra-city rail pilot in Ibadan, resurfaced township roads, and a serious industrial corridor linking Oke-Ogun to the Lagos-Ibadan axis.

Signed commitments

  • Phase-1 Ibadan Light Rail feasibility + funding
  • 1,200km of township roads resurfaced and drained
  • Regional bus-rapid-transit on six corridors

Justice & Rule of Law

Government that answers to the people.

A barrister's commitment: bring transparency to every naira spent and make Oyo the easiest state in Nigeria to do honest business.

Signed commitments

  • Publish a real-time citizens' budget dashboard
  • Reform land administration; digitise titles
  • Independent anti-corruption commission
  • Justice-sector reform: magistrates in every LGA
Pillar 8

  • 72-hour business registration for SMEs
  • Tax-holiday program for priority sectors
  • One-stop investor portal with digital permits
  • PPP framework law for transparent delivery
