Dr. Kayode Fayemi has been commended for giving top priority to training and capacity building of all public servants in the state.
The Commissioner for Information, Tourism and Values Orientation, Aare Muyiwa Olumilua, stated this while addressing participants at a One-Day Seminar/Workshop recently organized by the Ekiti State Office of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for the Local Government and State Desk Officers across the State.
At the program which was anchored by the Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to the Governor on SDGs, Mrs. Bola Solanke, the Commissioner for Information, Aare Olumilua expatiated that Governor Fayemi built the five pillars of this administration on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals to allow a seamless realization of the goals that would guarantee a better future for all.
In his charge to the participants, the Commissioner said the Desk Officers remain critical stakeholders in the attainment of the set objectives, as they are the link and the government representatives to the people at the grass roots.
Olumilua who stressed how seriously the Fayemi-led government takes capacity building, noted that the importance of continuous training cannot be over emphasized in a dynamic world.
He urged them to take advantage of such training to equip themselves with the requisite knowledge and tools that will aid quality service delivery.
Olumilua also used the opportunity to remind the participants that it was high time people returned to the days when preference was placed on societal values, urging them to always be punctual and pay rapt attention to get the best out of the training programme.
Also present at the opening ceremony were the representatives of the Chief of Staff, the Head of Service, and the Chairman of the Local Government Service Commission. The SSA to the Governor on Rural Development, Hon. Ade Omonijo, was in attendance as well.
