While expressing his appreciation, the elated Segun-Joel thanked Governor Seyi Makinde, the deputy governor, Barrister Bayo Lawal for deeming it fit to honour him with the appointment, which according to him, was beyond his expectation.
“I wish to thank my father, the deputy governor, Barrister Bayo Lawal, his wife, Mrs Ajibola Lawal and their children for choosing me as his Senior Special Assistant for online. This appointment has given a new dimension to my journalism career.”
“I specially appreciate the past and present management of JAMZ FM 100.1 that employed me and seconded me to the Governor’s Office as State House correspondent where God opened my eyes to other opportunities which led to the floating of GOAL POACHER NEWS.COM on 5th April, 2020.
“I want to dedicate this new position to God Almighty, my family and all members of the Press Crew and I want to use this medium to reiterate that I will use this opportunity to discharge my duties diligently and be committed to the welfare of my colleagues who have been supporting me through thin and thick.”
