Gov. Oyebanji recalls suspended commissioner

Ekiti State Governor, Mr Biodun Oyebanji has recalled the Commissioner for Chieftaincy and Home Affairs, Mr Olaiya Atibioke from suspension.

The recall is sequel to the expiration of the two weeks suspension slammed on the Commissioner on August 12, 2023.

He was suspended for unauthorised departure from the venue of the three-day retreat for the new commissioners, special advisers, and permanent secretaries held at Bishop Adetiloye Hall, Trade Fair Complex, Ado-Ekiti.

According to a statement by the Special Adviser (Media) to the Governor, Mr Yinka Oyebode, Mr Atibioke is expected to resume work at his office on Monday, August 28, 2023.

The Governor urges top government functionaries in the state to take a cue from the suspension, while restating his administration’s zero tolerance for indiscipline and actions that are inimical to the progress of the state.
