By John Adeleke, Ado Ekiti

 

Ekiti State Governor, Mr Biodun Oyebanji has recalled the Commissioner for Chieftaincy and Home Affairs, Mr Olaiya Atibioke from suspension.

Recalled that Mr Atibioke’s suspension followed his alleged unauthorized departure from the venue of the three-day retreat for members of the State Executive Council and Permanent Secretaries held at Bishop Adetiloye Hall, Trade Fair Complex, Ado Ekiti.

The Commissioner had left the venue of the retreat without permission. He was nowhere to be found when commissioners were called upon to sign the performance bond.

However, the recall followed the expiration of the two weeks suspension slammed on the Commissioner on August 12, 2023.

According to a statement by the Special Adviser (Media) to the Governor, Mr Yinka Oyebode, Mr Atibioke is expected to resume work at his office on Monday, August 28, 2023.

The Governor urges top government functionaries in the state to take a cue from the suspension, while restating his administration’s zero tolerance for indiscipline and actions that are inimical to the progress of the state.
