Ogunleye assured them he would personally convey their appeals to the governor, while encouraging them to continue praying for the prosperity of Ondo State and Nigeria. Addressing the prevailing economic challenges, he urged patience and understanding, citing President Tinubu’s decisive economic reforms, which, though initially challenging, are aimed at long-term national benefit.
The meeting concluded with prayers led by the midwives for Governor Aiyedatiwa, Hon. Bosun Ogunleye, and the nation, reinforcing the collaborative spirit and shared hope for a progressive Ondo State.
The state president of the association:Prophetess Deborah Adejuwon and Secretary, Mrs Florence Fatuase and a host of others were present at the meeting.
