PRESS RELEASE

The Ondo State Head of Service, Mr Dare Aragbaye has set up a committee consisting of Selected Permanent Secretaries to rectify some identified inadequacies in the state civil service to enhance efficient and highly productive civil servants in the state.

Mr Aragbaye, who made this known while playing host to members of the Association of Retired Permanent Secretaries in Ondo State in his office in Akure, said he would take necessary steps to raise the standard of the civil service to the level of international best practices.

He asserted that as the sector responsible for implementation of the policies of government, the civil service should be reorganized to enhance the confidence of members of the public and ensure better relationship between the government and the people of the state.

The Head of Service commended the state Governor, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu for the recent appointment of some senior Civil Servants as Permanent Secretaries as well as non-interference stance of the Governor in running the affairs of the state civil service.

He solicited the support of the retired Permanent Secretaries and all Civil Servants in the state to achieve the desired growth and development of the state civil service.

Speaking on behalf of the retired Permanent Secretaries, Dr. Laoye Adegoke congratulated Mr Aragbaye on his well deserved appointment as the state Head of Service.

Dr Adegoke enjoined the HOS to leave remarkable legacies behind at the expiration of his tenure in office by initiating policies that would be of great benefit to the entire civil servants and promote the ideal of the civil service in the state.

Other members of the association include Dr. Augustine Adeyekun, Barr. Fola Amure, Rev. Soji Gbadebo and Mr Matthew Imoru.
