Ondo State Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN, has assigned portfolios to the two new Commissioners who were sworn-in earlier on Wednesday.
The two new Commissioners are Mr. Akinwumi Samson Sowore and Prince Jacob Adeboboye Ologbese.
A statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr Olabode Olatunde, said that Sowore and Ologbese have been assigned to the Ministry of Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs and Ministry of Regional Integration and Diaspora, respectively.
Similarly, the Governor has redeployed three old Commissioners to different ministries. The redeployment is aimed at improving governance and deploying talents to reinvigorate certain sectors.
According to the statement, the former Commissioner for Regional Integration and Diaspora, Mrs. Bamidele Ademola Olateju, has been redeployed to the Ministry of Information and Orientation while the former Commissioner for Physical and Urban Development, Rt. Hon. Fatai Olotu Aburumaku has also been redeployed to the Ministry of Water and Sanitation.
