Governor Ademola Adeleke has written the Osun State House of Assembly, requesting approval to change the state’s logo.
The request was contained in a letter read by the Speaker of the Assembly, Hon. Adewale Egbedun, during plenary on Tuesday.
In the letter, titled: “Presentation of the New Logo of Osun State Government for Approval,” Adeleke urged the assembly to fast-track approval to make the new logo the official brand of the state.
The letter reads: “Further to the determination of this administration to redirect our dear state to a glorious path as well as assume her respected position among the comity of states in Nigeria, I present to the Honourable House of Assembly the new logo of the Osun Government (State of the Living Spring).
“The logo, State of the Living Spring, is the cornerstone of our identity, which communicates who we are to the outside world.“I, therefore, urge the assembly to fast-track every necessary legislative process on the new logo to make it the official brand of the Osun State Government.
”The speaker, after reading the letter, urged the House Committee on Judiciary, Legal Matters, and Public Petitions to advise the House on the new logo.
Thereafter, the assembly passed the Osun Senior Secondary Education Board Establishment Bill, 2023, for a second reading, while the lawmakers made amendments to the State Healthcare Development Board Amendment Bill, 2024.
