Ekiti State Governor, Biodun Oyebanji, has reinstated Mr. Taiwo Olatunbosun as Commissioner for Information, less than a week after dissolving the state executive council.
The development was confirmed in a statement by the governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Yinka Oyebode, on Tuesday in Ado-Ekiti.
According to the recall letter signed by the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Prof. Habaibat Adubiaro, on August 18, Olatunbosun’s reappointment takes immediate effect.
Governor Oyebanji had dissolved his cabinet on August 11, asking commissioners and special advisers to hand over to permanent secretaries or the most senior civil servants in their ministries. However, six commissioners—including those in Finance, Works, and Human Capital Development—were retained to ensure stability in critical sectors.
At the time, Oyebanji explained that the shake-up was intended to inject new energy into governance while aligning with his administration’s “shared prosperity” agenda.
