Egbedun, Globacom Partner To Fix Osun Assembly e-Library
Osun State House of Assembly Speaker, Hon. Adewale Egbedun has revealed a plan by the 8th Assembly to partner with mobile telecommunication giant, Globacom in fixing the dormant Assembly e-Library.
The Speaker made this known today when he hosted the Executive members of the company led by Mr Kofoshi in his office.
You will recall that shortly after his inauguration as the Speaker of the 8th Assembly, Rt. Hon. Egbedun had conducted a tour on the library to assess the state of the facility. The Speaker was however dissatisfied with the condition of the facility in spite of the humongous amount that has went into it in the past, promising to initiate interventions to resuscitate it in order to aid the work of the House and serve the public who visit the legislative house.
While addressing the visitor, Rt. Hon. Adewale Egbedun said he desired a good E-Library for Osun Assembly that will serve as a research centre for the Honourable members, staff and students in the state and beyond, impressing on the team from Globacom to partner the House in bringing the facility back to life.
Rt. Hon. Egbedun disclosed that Library is critical to his goal of digitalizing the Assembling, adding that Osun laws should be available and associable with the citizenry.
Responding to him, the Chief Enterprise Officer, Globacom Ltd, Mr Eric Uwoama said Globacom is ready to partner with the institution to make the E-Library work effectively, commending the Speaker for his vision in running a tech-focus legislature.
The Deputy Speaker while speaking earlier, noted that students need to be encouraged in doing research, hence, corroborated the position of the Speaker in bringing the Library back to life.
Other Honourables present at the meeting are Hon. Olumide Fatunmise, Hon. Jeremiah Awoyeye, Hon. Abiola Waheed Ibrahim, Hon. Elisha Akinyemi Oderinwale and Hon. Kashope Abolarin.
On the entourage of Globacom lead team are Mr Bernard Mufeti, Enterprise Coordinator, Mr Niyi Odejobi, Zonal Head Enterprise Business, Mr Akeem Yusuf, South West Business Coordinator, Mrs Modupe Olubanjo, Head Public Relations, Mr Omotayo Seriki, Regional Head Communications and Adewale Adiatu, Regional Head, Enterprise Sales.
