The congratulatory message came amid festivities for Arowosaye's birthday on Wednesday, May 13, 2026, turning the event into what attendees described as a dual celebration for the newly appointed chairman. Arowosaye was appointed by Governor Seyi Makinde on May 11, 2026, as part of the state government's ongoing initiatives to bolster governance frameworks and enhance the development of Oyo State's solid minerals sector.
Speaking at the birthday gathering, which drew political stakeholders, party loyalists, and community leaders, Ajadi lauded Arowosaye's allegiance to the administration and his dedication to the state's progress. He noted that the alignment of the appointment with the birthday signified a new chapter of heightened responsibility and service.
“I wholeheartedly congratulate my brother, Honorable Arowosaye Saheed Adeyemi, on his well-deserved appointment as Chairman of Pacesetter Minerals Development Company. This appointment reflects his diligence, loyalty, and contributions to the growth of our party and the development of Oyo State,” Ajadi remarked.
He further stated that Governor Makinde's decision demonstrated confidence in Arowosaye's leadership skills and his ability to achieve results in a sector deemed vital to the state's economic diversification strategy. “The solid minerals sector presents immense opportunities for Oyo State, and I am certain that Honorable Arowosaye will introduce innovative ideas, transparency, and decisive leadership to the company. His appointment is not merely a personal milestone but also a summons to greater service for the people,” he added.
Ajadi also offered prayers for the celebrant's continued success, health, and wisdom as he assumes his new role. “As he celebrates his birthday today, I pray that Almighty God grants him wisdom, strength, and many more years to serve humanity. I believe this new position will open further opportunities for him to contribute meaningfully to Oyo State's advancement,” he said.
Observers at the event noted that the appointment is significant at a time when Oyo State is intensifying its focus on mineral resources as a potential source of internally generated revenue and industrial growth. The Pacesetter Minerals Development Company is tasked with coordinating investment, exploration, and sustainable management of mineral resources across the state.
