Osun State Government on Tuesday unveiled a website through its Civic Engagement Centre to project government’s activities and get feedback from the populace.
The website, which was launched by the chairman, Osun State Universal Basic Education Board, Mr. Ajibola Famurewa, had reports of activities of Civic Engagement Centre and those relating to other ministries, department and agents.
Speaking at the event, the Special Adviser to the Governor on Civic Engagement, Mr Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, whose agency designed the website, explained that it had reports of visit to over 1,000 rural communities in the state, among others.
He said, “The website is designed in such a way that people can drop their complaints and enquiries for government’s attention and can also call government in any of the quick response dedicated lines and email address provided on the platform.
“It will serve as a feedback mechanism between the government and the people, as well as policies and programmes.
“Through the website, activities of government, especially in the rural areas will be further projected to the outside world. It will also create avenue for partnership with many multi nationals and NGOs with interest in the improved living condition for rural dwellers.”
