Twenty-four (24) hours after he assumed office, he took some tough decisions, including freezing the state’s accounts, reversing appointments made by his predecessor, and changing the “State of Osun” appellation to "osun state". Osun State Governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke, has announced a series of policies to consolidate his earlier actions.
Adeleke signed six executive orders yesterday which affirms the reversal of the appointments made by the former Governor Adegboyega Oyetola, and went further on sacking about 12,000 workers said to have been illegally employed.
Those who were sacked included 30 Permanent Secretaries, while Chairman of the State Independent Electoral Commission (OSIEC), Segun Oladitan, and its members were said to be suspended. The OSIEC chairman and members were fired for alleged abuse of the office.
The governor also dethroned three monarch whose installations were controversial.
The monarchs which were removed, include Akinrun of Ikinrun (Oba Yinusa Akadiri); Aree of Ire (Oba Ademola Oluponle); and Owa of Igbajo, (Oba Gboyega Famodun).
Adeleke told the monarchs to vacate their palaces immrrediately, and instructed security operatives to take over the palaces.
But the House of Assembly, yesterday, reacted to some of Adeleke’s actions. The Assembly said the Osun Anthem and the designation of Osun as State of the Virtuous still remain legal, as they were backed by relevant provisions enacted by the legislature, and assented to by the governor then in 2012.
Relatedly, the Osun State chapter of All Progressives Congress (APC) condemned attacks by suspected Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) thugs, which had thrown the state into panic and confusion immediately Adeleke was inaugurated in Osogbo on Sunday.
