|
Anambra state Governor, Professor Charles Chukwuma Soludo, has appointed Mr. Bayo Ojeyinka as a Permanent Secretary in the Anambra state civil service.
Ojeyinka, a native of Osun state, has been in the Anambra state public service system since 1995, when he completed his National Youth Service Corps scheme (NYSC) in the state. He received the award of the best serving corps member during his service year, and was subsequently retained by the state government.
Speaking on his promotion, Bayo Ojeyinka said: “I am so excited to be considered. I don’t see this as a right but rather a rare privilege because so many brilliant officers also merited the promotion. I thank Mr Governor, Professor Charles Soludo, for this honour, and Ndi Anambra for all their love, kindness and support in my 29 years of living in Anambra state.
In a related development, Governor Soludo has also appointed Dr. Nwabufo Nwankwo as Permanent Secretary in the state civil service. Youthful Nwabufo has served past governors of the state in different capacities.
