Oyebanji Tasks Newly Sworn-In Commissioners On Need To Be Loyal

Governor Biodun Oyebanji, the governor of Ekiti State has urged the new commissioners and special advisers to justify their return to office through improved performance, commitment and loyalty.

He warned that anyone who failed to measure up would lose relevance in the administration.

Speaking on Tuesday during the swearing-in at Jibowu Hall, Government House, Ado-Ekiti, the governor told the appointees that their positions must be matched with good results.

Oyebanji recalled that he inaugurated the executive council (exco) on August 8, 2023 but dissolved it in line with constitutional provisions and global practices, noting that the break offered room for evaluation and “necessary refuelling” for the tasks ahead.

He said the last three years of working with the exco had produced progress in infrastructure, agriculture, education, health, arts and culture, and socioeconomic development, but stressed that some members needed to “double up” to remain relevant in the new exco.

He congratulated the commissioners, urging them to return to their ministries ready to hit the ground running and deliver on the administration’s six-pillar development agenda.
