BREAKING: AIYEDATIWA APPOINTS KAYODE AJULO, FIVE OTHER COMMISSIONERS
Lucky Aiyedatiwa, the governor of Ondo State, has nominated Kayode Ajulo, SAN, and five other people as commissioners.
As a result, the House of Assembly has received the nominees’ names for verification and screening.
Ebenezer Adeniyan, the governor’s chief press secretary, disclosed this in a statement that was made accessible to journalists on Friday.
The governor had earlier picked a former Deputy Clerk of the National Assembly, Mr Olaide Adelami, as the deputy governor of the state.

The statement on nominees read, “The nominees are Mrs. Omowumi Isaac; Mr. Olukayode A. Ajulo, SAN; Razaq Obe, Pastor Emmanuel Igbasan; Akinwumi Sowore and Mr. Oseni Oyeniyi.”
The statement added that the governor has also appointed the following individuals as Special Advisers: Olugbenga Omole -Special Adviser on Information and Strategy; Mrs. Olamide Falana -Special Adviser on Gender Affairs, and Mr. Alabi Johnson – Special Adviser on Energy.
Aiyedatiwa succeded late governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, who died of prostrate cancer at the age of 67 in Germany in December 2023.
