Olowolabi, who also submitted that the main reason to occupy public office is to render selfless service to the people and not to amass wealth, urged the electorate to always monitor any developmental project going on in their areas. 
He wondered why the previous government owed workers 7 months salary, despite the fact that allocations were coming into the state treasury regularly 
The State spokesman assured that the state Governor, Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN, would continue to provide social amenities for the people of the state, noting that the Governor is committed to the development of the state and protection of lives and property as guaranteed by the constitution of Federal Republic of Nigeria.
