President Muhammadu Buhari has arrived in Ondo State on a one-day visit to commission two projects – the Ore Industrial Hub and the Ore Inter-change.

Ondo State Government had said the commissioning was part of activities marking the 3rd anniversary of Governor Rotimi Akeredolu’s administration.

Social media aide to the President, Lauretta Onochie, posted a video on Twitter of the president’s arrival in Ondo on Tuesday.

The Ore Bridge which forms the interchange along the Benin-Ijebu Ode expressway is about 125m long.

The president will commission a N15 billion International Industrial Park in Omotosho, Ore in Odigbo Local Government Area.

The state government had said it was able to achieve the feat following the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding with HESSMAC Nigeria Limited for the development, operation and management of the park.

The government said the industrial park, which covers a land area of 1000 hectares, is expected to generate 15,000 direct jobs and other auxiliary services from 400 industries that will spring up.
