In a recent address during the commissioning of the 34.85 kilometers Oyo-Iseyin Road, Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State offered a valuable piece of advice to indigenes and princes who have been engaged in contentious debates regarding the selection of the new occupant of the revered Alaafin of Oyo stool. The vacancy in this esteemed position arose following the transition of Oba Lamidi Adeyemi in April 2022. Governor Makinde firmly stated that the selection of the new Alaafin would not be influenced by financial considerations, emphasizing that the throne would not go to the highest bidder.

Addressing the residents of the town during the ceremony, Governor Makinde reiterated the importance of putting an end to the disputes and disagreements among the princes and interested parties vying for the prestigious title. He underscored his administration's commitment to fulfilling the promises made to the people of the state, highlighting the Oyo-Iseyin Road as a significant project that would facilitate access to various parts of the state.

Governor Makinde's words echoed a stern warning to those who might entertain thoughts of attempting to sell the throne. He cautioned that any individual with such intentions would ultimately face the consequences of their actions, emphasizing the need for the selection process to uphold the dignity and integrity of the Alaafin of Oyo position.

In his address, the governor expressed his delight in inaugurating a project that would not only enhance connectivity but also stimulate economic growth and investment in the Oyo and Oke-Ogun zones. He acknowledged the positive impact of the road on commuters and businesses in the region, highlighting the cost-saving benefits and improved accessibility that it would provide. Governor Makinde's remarks serve as a call for unity and a reminder of the importance of preserving the cultural and traditional heritage of the Alaafin of Oyo throne.

In a recent development, Yobe State Governor, Mai Mala Buni, has emphasized the need for inclusivity within the state's workforce. This call came during the swearing-in ceremony of nine newly-appointed permanent secretaries into the state civil service. Governor Buni underscored the importance of providing every employee with a clearly defined schedule of responsibilities to validate their employment.

Governor Buni noted that his administration had recently taken the significant step of hiring over 2,600 degree graduates, diploma holders, and NCE holders to fill vacant positions in the state civil service. This initiative was aimed at enhancing productivity and strengthening the state's workforce.

He urged the state's Head of Service and Permanent Secretaries to actively promote the implementation of these schedules of responsibilities, ensuring that each worker is assigned duties that substantiate their employment. This, he believes, will not only grant employees a sense of belonging and purpose but also help curb issues related to idleness and absenteeism, ultimately fostering a more dynamic and productive work environment.

Furthermore, Governor Buni called upon the newly appointed permanent secretaries to work collaboratively with their respective commissioners, directors, and staff within their ministries and departments. He emphasized the importance of teamwork, loyalty, sacrifice, and diligence in the pursuit of Yobe State's development goals.

The newly sworn-in permanent secretaries include Alhaji Modu, Umar Aji Suleiman, Abdulmumin Mamman, Tsoho Rabiu Garba, Sani Mohammed Sama’ila, Zainab Mohammed Ago, Yusuf Hassan Yusuf, Bukar Aji Bukar, and Baba Kachallah Geidam. These officials have been deployed to various ministries, departments, and agencies across the state, each entrusted with the responsibility of contributing to the overall progress of Yobe State.
