Ademola Adeleke Says He Didn’t Sack 12,000 Workers, 3 Monarchs
KanyiDaily recalls that immediately after his inauguration on Sunday, November 27, Governor Adeleke signed Executive Orders 3, 4, and 5, nullifying the employment of 12,000 workers and dethroning three monarchs, among others.
But while speaking on Rave FM in Osogbo during a talk show programme, “Frank Talk,” the governor’s spokesman, Olawale Rasheed, said Adeleke has neither sacked 12,000 workers nor dethroned any monarch.
According to him, the appointments and employment by the administration of Oyetola will be reviewed to ensure due process.
Rasheed said, “There was never sack of any worker or traditional ruler. We only set up a review panel. It is impossible to sack and put a review panel in place.
“The review panel is to look at the numbers of the people that were employed, due processes of the employment, and qualification among other things.
‘’Before our taking over, there were issues of backdating of employment, even till last year. So order 1-5 will be operationalized by order 6 which are the panels.
“Those that were employed from July 17 till our takeover are still at work presently, they have not been sacked. The staff audit will review the employment. Within 4 hours, Adeleke has dismantled the illegality of 4 months, all the bobby traps he has dismantled them.“
KanyiDaily had also reported how Governor Ademola Adeleke was seen thrilling Osun people with his dance moves on Monday, the first day he resumed office as governor of the state.
