On Thursday, during the swearing-in ceremony of newly appointed and reappointed members of the State Executive Council, Governor Aiyedatiwa charged the officials to settle into their roles and deliver tangible results immediately.

The new appointees inaugurated include Dr Taiwo Fasoranti as Secretary to the State Government, Dr Olukayode Ajulo, SAN, as Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, and Mrs Omowumi Isaac as Commissioner for Finance, Engr. Johnson Alabi as Special Adviser on Power, Dr Seun Osamaye as Special Adviser on Women Affairs, Comrade Bola Taiwo as Special Adviser on Union Matters and Special Duties, Prof. Simidele Odimayo as Special Adviser on Health, and Engr.

Governor Aiyedatiwa emphasised that his administration focuses on speed and accuracy in governance. He added that the newly sworn-in officials must key into the seven-point developmental agenda, “Our Ease,” designed to accelerate the state’s growth.

He further urged the appointees to embrace teamwork and collaborate effectively with career officers, Permanent Secretaries, and Accounting Officers in their Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs), as the government’s success depends on a unified administration with a shared vision.

To ensure accountability and efficiency, the Governor announced that performance-measuring techniques would be introduced, stressing that his administration would have zero tolerance for corruption, indolence, and disloyalty.

“We demand excellent performance from all appointees, for that is the primary reason we were voted into office by the good people of Ondo State,” the Governor warned.
