Governor Rotimi Akeredolu has appointed Hon. Temitayo Oluwatuyi “Tukana” as the new Secretary to the State Government (SSG).
Tukana’s appointment follows the resignation of Secretary to Ondo State Government, SSG, Ifedayo Abegunde on Monday.
Akeredolu while confirming the new appointment on his Twitter page wrote, “Today, I announce the appointment of Hon. Temitayo Oluwatuyi “Tukana” as the Secretary to the State Government (SSG) to resume immediately following the resignation of Hon. Ifedayo Abegunde.”
The former SSG, Abegunde, a grassroot politician had even vacated his office for months after the relationship between him and the governor became frosty following some irreconcilable differences.
Abegunde had not hidden his objection to the second term ambition of Akeredolu.
Many believed that his closeness to the deputy governor Hon Agboola Ajayi who also had a frosty relationship with the governor until he defected to the opposition party was one of his albatross.
Party leaders in the state had pointedly asked Akeredolu to sack Abegunde for disloyalty after a meeting he and the deputy governor held with some PDP leaders in the state ahead of Ajayi defection.
