Ayodele Fayose, Ekiti State Governor, has appointed four new permanent secretaries and five new executive secretaries.
A statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi, on Tuesday, said that the present administration in the state had “repositioned the civil service in the state, corrected the lopsidedness inherited”.
Before the appointment of the new permanent secretaries, three local government areas had none.
They were Emure, Ikere and Irepodun/Ifelodun.
Governor Fayose said “conscious effort had to be made to also encourage women in the service to rise to the top”, adding that the state only had five women permanent secretaries before the appointment of new ones.
Fayose also solicited the support of the public servants for the administration and urged them to support his deputy, Prof Kolapo Olusola, to succeed him.
The appointed permanent secretaries are Mrs Osundare Adebimpe Grace (ikere), Mr Ale James Agbelusi (irepodun/ifelodun), Mrs Foluke Adeyemo (Emure) and Mr Omodara Olaseinde Vincent (Ekiti East).
While the five new executive secretaries appointed are Dr Isaac Adu, Dr Ayodele Ibikunle, Alhaji Ganiyu Titilope, Mr Deji Samoh and Mr Idowu Oguntuase.
