New Ekiti Governor, Oyebanji Makes First Appointments, Freezes State Accounts by press9jatv(op): 7:19am On Oct 17, 2022
The Ekiti State Governor, Biodun Oyebanji, has directed the freezing of the State Government accounts with immediate effect.

OSUN DEFENDER reports that this is coming hours after he was sworn in as the state governor at the Ekiti Parapo Pavilion, Ado-Ekiti

Aside from freezing the account, Oyebanji also makes his first two appointments. He retained Yinka Oyebode as his Chief Press Secretary

Oyebode was the CPS to the immediate past governor, Dr Kayode Fayemi, during his first and second terms.


A statement by the Head of Service, Bamidele Agbede, on Sunday evening titled, ‘Appointment of CPS, said, “The Governor of Ekiti State, Biodun Oyebanji, has appointed Mr Oyebode as the CPS to the Governor. The appointment takes immediate effect”.

The governor has also appointed an academic, Dr Habibat Adubiaro, as the Secretary to the State Government.

A statement on Sunday by the CPS, Oyebode, titled ‘Appointment of the SSG, said, “The appointment takes immediate effect”.
Oyebode, in another statement titled, “Freezing of state government accounts”, said that the

governor had also frozen the accounts of the state government with immediate effect

The CPS said, “All accounting officers and financial institutions are urged to comply with this directive”.

Retaining Oyebode as CPS is not a good decision. Once disagreement start between the governor and his predecessor, Oyebode will start having crisis of loyalty. Anyway, congratulations to the governor and all the new appointees. I wish them the best as they serve Ekiti to the best of their ability.

Upon all your loyalty to APC over the years still no one has deemed it fit to employ you even in your Ekiti state! I think there's something you are not telling us about you.

Freezing the account means that all last-minute approvals cannot be paid any longer.
Even with back-dated cheques

The cps will follow his stomach.....for most people,the stomach earns the most loyalty.

For oyebanji to have appointed him,they must have been very close and know each other quite well,so switching allegiance wouldn't be a problem anytime the line is drawn.
