‘They should be ready to leave office’ — Adeleke kicks as Oyetola swears in 30 perm secs
Ademola Adeleke, the Osun governor-elect, has criticised the appointment of 30 permanent secretaries by Gboyega Oyetola, the incumbent governor.
The 30 permanent secretaries were sworn in on Thursday.
In a statement by Olawale Rasheed, his spokesperson, Adeleke, who will be sworn into office on November 27, said the permanent secretaries should be ready to vacate office when his administration takes over.
“We want to put it on record that those who accept the appointments should be ready to leave the service whether or not their service tenure has reached statutory age,” the statement reads.
“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.”
