Lagos State Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode on Wednesday announced the
re-appointment of three of the outgoing members of the State Civil
Service Commission for an additional tenure of five years.
Governor Ambode, who made this known at a dinner organized by the
State Government in honour of the outgoing Chairman and Commissioners of
the Commission, said the re-appointment was in line with the resolve of
his administration to always reward excellence, hard work, commitment
and dedication.
Those re-appointed are Pastor Israel Folorunsho Alagbe, Hon. Tolani Wasiu Odeyemi and Engr. Oladimeji Oshinowo.
Other outgoing members of the Commission are Comrade Rasaq Folorunsho and the Chairman, Dr. Ayodele Olujobi Ososanya.
Governor Ambode said he was delighted to celebrate and thank the
outgoing members of the Commission for their selfless service to the
government and people of Lagos State, adding that the members discharged
their duties very well while serving the State.
He said: “The outgoing Chairman, Dr. Olujobi Ososanya, has served the
Commission for ten years and during his tenure, the credibility and
pride of our civil service was never in doubt. Civil Servants have been
getting their promotion in time and there has been better communication
between the Service and the government.”
“The task of recruiting, selection, and placement of suitable and
qualified individuals in the State Civil Service is enormous but this
Commission has handled it very well and ensured that the engine room of
the government is properly oiled,” Governor Ambode said.
The Governor added that having served in the civil service for
twenty-seven years until recently himself, he could attest to the fact
that the Commission, under the outgoing members, was able to maintain
harmony through the even application of rules and regulations guiding
the service without fear of favour.
He said by their dedication, commitment and diligence, the outgoing
members have upheld the reputation of the Lagos State Civil Service and
entrenched its unequalled record when compared with others in the
country.
In his opening remarks, Permanent Secretary in the office of the
Chief of Staff, Mr. Abiodun Bamgbose said the dinner organized in honour
of the outgoing members of the Commission was the very first in the
history of the State, and it was in line with the continuity with
improvement mantra of Governor Ambode’s administration.
Bamgbose said the dinner was basically to honour those who have been
upright in character and celebrating them for successfully managing over
fifty thousand civil servants in the State.
The outgoing Chairman, Ososanya, who spoke on behalf of other
members, thanked the people of the State for the opportunity given to
them to serve, and apologized for those they might have offended in the
course of discharging their duties.
”Eyes have not seen, ears have not heard and mouths have not spoken
about the good works that God has been using and would still use
Governor Ambode to do in Lagos State”, he said.
Our government will always reward excellence, dedication – Ambode
