Making the commendation in Lagos, during the launch of Out of Compassion, a quarterly magazine dedicated to the rehabilitation of street beggars by Bimpe Sorinolu Charity Initiative (BISOCHIN), the association President, Chief Waye Oso said the various policies initiated by Fayose were worth commeding adding that the association was prepared to support the governor in developing and executing projects geared towards making the state one of the best in the country.

Oso, in a statement made said, the association would continue to support whatever policy Fayose initiates so long as it is geared at alleviating the suffering of the masses. "On our part we will do our best to give him (Fayose) the needed support and we shall continue to rally round him in all his developmental effort'' the statement said.

He added that inspite of the fact that the state needed to advance in all spheres of life, there was no need distracting the government mindset over issues that had little or no effect to the overall growth of the State. "It is under the atmosphere of peace that we can all enjoy him and have our own share of the dividends of democracy," Oso maintained.

Commenting on the controversies over the council reform laws, he said "we are not bothered, because all the controversies are borne out of political intrigues, we have no doubt in our minds that the governor means well for the state, and as long as he continues to good, he should be allowed to carry on''.
