Ekiti State Governor Biodun Oyebanji announced that he has approved the immediate disengagement of all technical advisers and directors‑general of government agencies in the state.
The decision, made by the governor’s office, will see the removal of these senior officials from their posts without further notice.
Ekiti State, located in southwestern Nigeria, is governed by a cabinet of agencies that oversee various aspects of state administration. The move is expected to affect the leadership structure across these bodies.
Details on the reasons behind the mass dismissal or the subsequent appointments of new personnel have not been released by the governor’s office.
Observers note that such sweeping changes are uncommon in Nigerian state governments and may signal a shift in the administration’s approach to policy implementation.
