Percy OnyekaGovernor Lucky Aiyedatiwa, of Ondo State has dissolved the State Executive Council.
“All members of the Cabinet are to hand over to the Permanent Secretaries or the most senior administrative officers in their respective offices immediately,” the statement states.
Additionally, all Special Assistants (SAs) and Senior Special Assistants (SSAs) have been relieved of their responsibilities, effective immediately.
“All impacted officials have been instructed to turn over whatever government property they may have.
“The affected officials are appreciated for their services and contributions to the State’s development,” the governor said.
Recall that when Ayedatiwa, the deputy governor of Ondo State, took the oath of office as governor, he expressed regret for accepting the position.
Ayedatiwa was sworn in as the seventh governor of the state at the Cocoa Conference Hall of the Governor’s office by the Chief Judge of the state, Justice Olusegun Odusile, at an elaborate ceremony witnessed by hundreds of people.
In his acceptance speech, the new governor assured the people of the state that his administration would give priority to their welfare.
After his swearing-in, Aiyedatiwa met with the stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) across the 18 local government areas, where he urged them to embrace peace and unity ahead of the forthcoming governorship election in the state.
It was his first stakeholders’ meeting since his inauguration as governor.
Aiyedatiwa thanked the party leaders for their support and stressed the need for all contending forces within the party to come together to move the party and the state forward.
The governor said, “It is important for me to tell you that as leaders of our party, we must put behind us the events of the last few months and come together as one big family for the progress of the APC and the development of our dear state.”
