But today, the celebrated Hassan Olajoku Memorial Park has been turned into a den of miscreants and criminally minded individuals, who have looted some of the things that was put in place to make the Olajoku park a standard recreation center, defeating the purpose of putting it in place for the people’s enjoyment. Indeed, leftover cannabis is a natural decoration all over the various facilities in the Olajoku park. According to many, this is a major reason that people do not patronize the Olajoku park. Reacting to the situation of things at the Olajoku park, the Osun State Commissioner for Finance, Hon Bola Oyebamiji assured that the Olajoku park, designed and constructed to generate revenue for Osun would definitely generate money as planned. At present, the government is committed to ensuring its resources on the project is not laid to waste while the people want immediate action, it is in the interest of all parties to see the Hassan Olajokun park become functional again.
