Oyo State Governor,Senator Abiola Ajimobi has unveiled a new official logo
through which the state would henceforth be identified.
The logo includes the shield which represents the corporate armour for law
enforcement and protection of the state, the Cocoa House and the University of
Ibadan which symbolize a state of many firsts and landmark of intellectualism
and development.
It also includes a talking drum and beaded gourd which, according to the
governor, celebrates the deep traditional root and the rich cultural heritage of
the state.
According to Ajimobi, the galaxy of stars on the logo symbolizes the 33 local
government areas of the state and the green fields, a harvest of agricultural
produce, while the last symbol stands for the arable land mass of the state.
Governor Ajimobi, while unveiling the logo at the Executive Council Chambers
of the Governor Office, shortly after the weekly state Executive Council
Meeting, said it was a reflection of the cultural heritage of the state.
According to him, the logo epitomizes the restoration, transformation and
repositioning agenda of his administration that would take the state to greater
heights.
The governor also said that the logo would represent the new identity for the
state through which the uniqueness of the state would be appreciated.
He said that this was the first time that the state would have a logo of its
own, pointing out that this had really confirmed it as “a pace setter state with
a pace setting government”.
