I will sack your 30 political appointees - Adeleke threatens Oyetola

Adeleke and Oyetola Adeleke and Oyetola

The Osun State Governor-elect, Ademola Adeleke says he will sack the 30 new permanent secretaries appointed by Osun State Governor Adegboyega Oyetola on Thursday, November 24.

Recall that we reported earlier that Oyetold approved and installed 30 senior civil servants as permanent secretaries on Thursday while Adeleke is due to be inaugurated as the State Governor on Sunday, November 27.

He said: “I have said, we are a non-partisan organisation; we don’t talk about politics here and that has held us together, bound us together for all these years.

“We didn’t discuss who to vote for, but the body language of the entire members tells me that we should look inwards since we have a Yoruba man there.

In a quick reaction to the appointment, Adeleke, in a statement by his spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, threatened that any of the appointed civil servants that concedes to the appointment will be sacked by Monday, November 28.

The statement reads, “Any Coordinating Director who accept a permanent Secretary appointment from outgoing Governor Gboyega Oyetola will exit the service from November 28th, Osun State Governor-elect, Senator Ademola Adeleke has warned.”
