Oyebanji Unveils 21 Commissioners, 14 Advisers

Ekiti State Governor, Biodun Oyebanji, has unveiled a list of 21 new commissioners and 14 special advisers.

This is sequel to the successful screening and confirmation of the 21 names of commissioners-designate forwarded to the state Assembly last month, as well as the Assembly’s approval for additional 10 special advisers for the governor.

The state Assembly’s confirmation was communicated to the governor last Friday in a letter signed by the Speaker, Hon. Adeoye Aribasoye.

A statement signed by the governor’s Special Adviser on Media, Yinka Oyebode, said the inauguration of the governor had earlier been given an approval for 10 special advisers by the previous Assembly in October last year.
