Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State, on Wednesday, assented to the bill for the adoption of new logo in the state.
A statement by his spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, said the new symbol is a signal of a new rebirth in the state.
“I am elated to sign this new Logo into law as a signal of rebirth of our dear State. The new logo is significant because it rhymes and meaningfully represents our historic anthem, our values, and our tradition.
“The new logo is also an educational resource material for our younger generation as it contains symbols of our landmarks, strengths, resources, and history. The logo is also a tool to market the state at home and abroad.
“It is my honour and privilege to introduce the new logo as the symbol of our state. This announcement will herald a new life of prosperity, abundance, and sustainability for our people and admirers,” Adeleke said.
The Speaker of the State House of Assembly, Hon Adewale Egbedun, commended Adeleke for the initiatives, assuring that the legislative arms would ensure adequate support to the executive.
“For us at the State Assembly, we will continue to robustly support the many laudable initiatives of the executive arm of government,” Egbedun said.
