Anticipations Run High As Oyebanji’s Cabinet Returns To Pursue Good Governance....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

There are high hopes within Ekiti State that Governor Oyebanji will surpass the achievements of his predecessors in the past 300 days. His distinct approach to governance has generated these expectations. As the saying goes, doing the same thing and expecting different results is futile. Governor Abiodun Oyebanji recognizes this and has taken deliberate steps to govern the state effectively during his four-year term. He has outlined a six-pillar agenda derived from a 30-year development plan.
Governor Oyebanji has been punctual and led by example in all state functions, demonstrating his commitment to efficient governance. Despite criticism from some quarters, including the Zonal Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Sanya Atofarati, who questioned his decision not to appoint commissioners and referred to him as a “sole administrator,” the governor has defended his approach.

According to sources close to the governor, he aims to manage the state’s limited resources efficiently, as appointing commissioners and their aides would cost the state approximately N200 million monthly. In a departure from the past, Governor Oyebanji conducted a 3-day retreat for the newly inaugurated commissioners, special assistants, and special advisers, emphasizing the importance of accountability and performance.
The governor made each commissioner sign a performance charter, which defines their minimum expectations and serves as the basis for evaluating their performance over a six-month period. He emphasized zero tolerance for indiscipline and poor performance, stating that his relationship with political appointees would be based on service delivery.
Governor Oyebanji’s approach involves commissioners defending their work plans before a committee chaired by the governor over the next six months. This approach ensures that each ministry’s goals are aligned with a three-year master plan and are achieved within that timeframe. The governor is committed to holding officials accountable for their performance.
Ekiti residents have varying expectations of the governor’s administration. Some believe that the carefully selected commissioners must collaborate to address youth unemployment, stabilize electricity supply, and industrialize the state. They urge the governor to be firm in addressing underperforming commissioners. Others commend the governor’s portfolio allocations and expect a focus on revenue generation.
In summary, Governor Oyebanji’s approach to governance has raised expectations in Ekiti State, and his emphasis on accountability and performance is seen as a positive step. Residents hope he will prioritize employment, tourism, art and culture, and youth development while dealing decisively with underperforming commissioners and completing important projects.
