Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State, on Wednesday, swore in his new appointees, including commissioners.

Adeleke declared himself as the State Commissioner for Works, with his deputy, Kola Adewusi as commissioner for Sports and Special Needs.

The governor charged the members to come up with new innovative ideas that will re-engineer the state’s economy in order to satisfy high expectations that the people of the state have in his administration.
Some of the new cabinet members expressed hope that their composition which comprises technocrats, professionals and youths, picked from across all senatorial districts in the state will help drive the governor’s agenda on even transformation in the state.
Two of the new appointees by Adeleke were commissioners during the administration of ex-Governor Rauf Aregbesola of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

They are Kolapo Alimi and Biyi Odunlade.
Adeleke appointed Alimi as the Commissioner of Information and Public Enlightenment.

He was the commissioner of Local Government and Chieftaincy during the Aregbesola’s administration.

Adeleke also appointed Odunlade as Commissioner of Political Affairs and Inter-Government Affiliation. He was the Commissioner of Youth and Sports under Aregbesola.

Though Aregbesola and the immediate past governor of the state, Gboyega Oyetola are members of the ruling APC, the two are political rivals. Aregbesola had handed over to Oyetola in 2018 but the two later fell apart.

Adeleke defeated the incumbent (Oyetola) during the July 16, 2022 governorship poll four years after Oyetola trounced him in the same contest.
