Fayemi Reinstates Five Perm Secretaries Sacked By Fayose

The five Permanent Secretaries that were retired unlawfully in 2014 by the immediate past administration led by Mr Ayodele Fayose, have been reinstated by the state government.

The reinstated Permanent Secretaries are: Mr Emmanuel Oso, Mr Alfred Ologuntoye, Mr Ayodeji Ajayi, Mrs Funke Falodun, Mr Ayoola Owolabi, and Mr Babatunde Alokan.

Their reinstatement followed the successful hearing of their petitions by the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), which declared that they were unfairly treated.

The NHRC also agreed with the petitioners and the state government for their reinstatement and settlement of all their outstanding salaries and allowances for the period of their illegal termination of appointment.

Consequently, Governor Kayode Fayemi directed that the five be reinstated accordingly.

The letters communicating their reinstatement was signed by the Head of Service, Dr Olugbenga Faseluka.

The reinstatement, according to the letter, takes effect from November 19.
