AbdulRazaq swears in seven perm secs

NEWS DIGEST – Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq yesterday swore in seven permanent secretaries.

He urged them to be good team players, saying they should join the rebuilding efforts of his administration.

The permanent secretaries are: Ibrahim Mohammed (Establishment), Yahya Mohammed (Water Resources), Sidikat Alaya (Tertiary Education), Iyabo Dupe Adekeye (Environment), Umar Yakubu Jaja (Planning), Salman Suleiman (Service Welfare) and Rebecca Bake (Social Development).

The appointments, however, triggered a minor tweak in postings, with Okanlawon Musa of the Water Resources moving to Special Duties and Adenike Ibrahim switching from Social Development/Women Affairs to Solid Minerals.

The governor advised the permanent secretaries to work closely with their political heads and junior colleagues in the bureaucracy to deliver optimal service and good governance to the people.
