Abiodun said he appointed the new bureaucrats from a pool of erudite members of different cadres in state public service.
According to him, the appointment is part of his administration’s efforts to reform and strengthen the service for optimal performance.
The new permanent secretaries, he said, need to brace up to meet public expectations.

The new permanent secretaries are Timothy Olatunji, Samuel Adeogun, Mrs Moriamo Oloko and Wasiu Kuye.

“This task pre-supposes that all stakeholders are conscious of the high public expectations and are committed to meeting them.”
The governor stressed that he did not influence the appointment of any of the new permanent secretaries.
“Their elevation is based on merit, hard work, dedication and seniority,” he said.
