Abiodun said the people expected much from the administration, hence it was expedient of them to be up and doing in the discharge of their duties. He reiterated the essence of the mantra, ‘building our future together’ which he said would be a mirage, if political appointees fail to work together as a team.

He enjoined them to work in synergy with their Commissioners and civil servants to realize set objectives, encapsulated in the manifesto and blueprint under which the government was voted into power.

“Your swearing-in today is to formally place you in your various responsibilities. I want to request that you continue to do what you have been doing. Keep the vision of this administration at heart. Discharge your duties responsibly, as you will be held accountable at the end of the day”, the Governor counselled.
