Oyo governor, Makinde cancels  appointment of 15 permanent secretaries

Oyo State Governor, Mr. Seyi Makinde, has nullified the appointment of 15 new permanent secretaries.
The governor  reversed the promotion on Friday as part of the fulfilment of his promise to review all new contracts and appointments made by the former governor Abiola Ajimobi in the last three weeks and his administration.
Makinde announced the decision at a meeting he had with all permanent secretaries in the state.
Also, the publicist of the Seyi Makinde Campaign Organisation, Prince Dotun Oyelade, who confirmed the development said: “Governor Makinde will be very consistent and finicky with all his campaign promises and this is not an exception.
‘’The governor said that all transactions either contractually or in terms of appointments and promotions that were done especially between Monday March 11 and May 28 would be given closer scrutiny particularly because of the obvious mischief that has been introduced into the whole governance within this period.
‘’So, it’s true that during the campaign period, the governor promised that the people of the state would not have him in the Governor’s Office to embark on distractive traditional probe but the brazen attitude that bothers on attempt to block the success of the current administration has made the governor to decide the latest course of action which is to reverse many of the policies and actions of the Ajimobi administration at the eve of his exit because they were borne out of malice.
“So, just like he made good the promise to cancel the N3, 000 paid by parents on their public secondary school children and open the Governor’s Office flyover for every citizen of Oyo State, in the same manner he is dealing with the issue of the appointment of the permanent secretaries and civil servants”, he added.
