Governor Lucky Ayedatiwa of Ondo State has appointed Hon. Temitayo Oluwatuyi as the new Secretary to the State Government (SSG).
The Governor announced this in a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Ebenezer Adeniyan, saying Oluwatuyi, known as Tukana, will resume immediately following the dissolution of the cabinet by Ayedatiwa.
Earlier on Wednesday, Ayedatiwa relieved the Ondo SSG and other members of the cabinet of their duties.
Adeniyan said in the statement, “The Governor of Ondo State, Hon. Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa, has approved the appointment of Hon. Tayo Oluwatuyi (Tukana) as the Secretary to the State Government (SSG).
“The Governor also approved the appointment of Mr. Abayomi Olasanya as the Chief of Protocol.
“Both appointments take immediate effect.”
Oluwatuyi is a former SSG under the late Governor Rotimi Akeredolu and a former Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs.
Oluwatuyi, an indigene of Akure, the Ondo State capital, was appointed by Governor Akeredolu as the SSG in 2020.
