ABEOKUTA—Governor
Ibikunle Amosun of Ogun State has appointed a native of Abia State, Ndimele
Emmanuel Ofor, and another native of Kogi State, Mr. Ipinniwa Steve Olusegun,
as Permanent Secretaries in the Ogun State Civil Service.
Ofor and Ipinniwa
were among the 14 new Permanent Secretaries sworn in by Amosun at the State
Executive Council Chambers, Governor’s office, Oke-mosan, Abeokuta.
Amosun
said, “I believe that if someone has been serving in a place for 20, 30 years
he can no longer be called a non-indigene.
He has been with us and he has
worked with us. He is now part of us.
He cannot be called a non-indigene, and
in any event, it will be unfair and unjust to deprive someone who worked for
you his deserved elevation on account of where he comes from.”
The governor
added that, “As for me, hard work rather than where you come from should be the
basis for promotion.”
He noted that “This is the first time we are having non-
indigenes as permanent secretaries in the state and they are part and parcel of
us, irrespective of where they are from, we’ll honour them because they have
proven themselves to be hard working”
