The Governor-elect of Osun State, Ademola Adeleke has issued a stern warning to top officials in the State Civil Service ahead of his assumption of office billed for Sunday, November 27.
The Governor-Elect, in a press statement released by his spokesperson, Mallam Olawale Rasheed on Thursday threatened to sack all coordinating directors who accept late permanent secretary appointment from the outgoing governor, Gboyega Oyetola.
Speaking in stronger terms, Adeleke added that the directors will, without hesitation or further ado, be axed from service on his first official day in office which is Monday, November 28.
“We want to put on records that those who accept the appointments should be ready to leave the service whether or not their service tenure has reached statutory age. The occupants will be treated as political appointees who will automatically follow the outgoing Governor out of public service from November 28.
” At the same time, those who still want to remain in the service of Osun state government should decline the Greek gift from the outgoing Governor. We affirm that no waiver will be entertained in sacking from office any kangaroo permanent secretary”, the statement read.
