Osun State governor, Ademola Adeleke, has approved the dissolution of non-statutory boards, commissions and parastatals in the State.
The governor ordered the dissolution of the boards through a memo on Tuesday addressed to heads of Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) and signed by the Secretary to the State Government, Teslim Igbalaye.
However, the Board of Osun State University was not affected by the directive.
Adeleke has taken steps to wipe out the footprints of his predecessor, Gboyega Oyetola, since his inauguration on Sunday.
The governor, on Monday, sacked 12,000 workers employed by Oyetola and put the appointment of three monarchs on hold.
The memo read: “As a follow-up to the pronouncement of Governor Adeleke on Sunday, November 27, 2022, all non-statutory boards, commissions, and parastatals including those of tertiary institutions (with exception of UNIOSUN) are hereby dissolved in the state forthwith.
“Consequently, all accounting officers of such boards, parastatals, and commissions are to take charge with immediate effect.”
