The monarch made the revelation during a function at the palace last week disclosing he had even secured a financier to undertake the construction.

He assured about ten police stations would be built across Ogbomosoland informing “they would be constructed by people who desire to be conferred with chieftaincy titles. There are others who we have spoken to and are eager to undertake various developmental projects we put to them.”

Further investigations by ogbomosoinsightonline.com meanwhile revealed that land has become a problem in siting projects, with a source saying, “There is problem of land acquisition for developments, there are people whom Kabiyesi had discussed with, indigenes and non-indigenes alike, those who are seeking chieftaincies and others and many have given their words to put up things but land isn’t easily available.”
