Three key appointees of the Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, officially resigned from the state cabinet on Monday.
They were the Commissioner for Budget and Economic Planning, Ayobami Ojo; Special Adviser on Budget and Economic Planning, Adegbola Oyeleke; and a member of the state Independent Electoral Commission, Sunday Falana.
Ojo, who hails from Ago-Are in Atisbo Local Government Area of the state, communicated his resignation in a letter addressed to the governor through the Secretary to the State Government, Prof. Musibau Babatunde.
In October, the governor’s Chief of Staff, Segun Ogunwuyi, resigned after more than five years in office.
His resignation was followed by that of the former Director-General of the state’s Due Process Office, Tara Adefope.
Ogunwuyi, a former member of the House of Representatives, did not publicly disclose his reason for resigning.
Following his departure, Makinde appointed Akinwole Akinwole as his replacement, while Aderonke Adedayo was appointed Director-General of the Due Process Office.
