The newly elected chairman of the Motor Dealers Association of Nigeria (MODAN), Oyo State chapter, Alhaji Musibau Sulaimon Maito, has called on the Federal Government to prevail on the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to rescind its decision to peg the daily cash limit withdrawal to N50,000.00.
He made this known during his acceptance speech during the association’s election, where he was re-elected for another four years. Alhaji Maito, who polled 55 out of the 57 votes, pledged to ensure that the association continued to wax stronger.
The election, which took place at the New Garage, was attended by the association’s elders, including Alhaji Mutiu Oloye Arikutaku, Elder Adebayo Adebisi, and Alhaji Abdul Waheed Olawale.
Speaking after the election, Elder Olusegun Okeowo, chairman of MODAN’s electoral committee, expressed satisfaction with the peaceful and calmness of the delegates drawn from all the association zones.
He, however, thanked other committee members for doing the job without bias.
The Iyaloja Motor Dealers of Oyo State’s Chief, Mrs. Remi Akerele, in her remarks, commended the peaceful electioneering process and the activities of the credentials committee for a job well done. She noted that the returning chairman should continue in line with his commitment to encouraging members of the association.
Alhaji Maito, who was highly elated and could not hide his joyous mood, pledged to involve the elders in making decisions about the association. He, however, called on the zones to ensure they worked according to the association’s regulations.
Although other executives are yet to emerge, the association has zoned the following positions: Oke-Ado, Assistant Treasurer and Market Corporate Officer, while Assistant Financial Secretary and Chief Whip positions go to the Old Ife-Road zone.
Others include Bodija, Taskforce Control and Assistance Social Welfare, Ring Road, which has an assistant PRO and social welfare secretary, and New Garage, which has a transport officer and assistant secretary.
