Abolore further pledged support for artisans, including tailors, mechanics, carpenters, and hairdressers, through the provision of tools, training, and financial assistance to boost their productivity.
He assured that development efforts under his representation would cut across all the 15 wards in Abeokuta South Federal Constituency, with a focus on equitable distribution of projects.
