The Ekiti state executive council on Wednesday approved the cancellation of some key appointments made by former governor Ayo Fayose towards the end of his tenure.
NAN reports that the review also affects all other appointments made into the state’s public service.
Olayinka Oyebode, the chief press secretary to the governor, who briefed journalists at the end of the meeting, said all executive secretaries appointed after the July 21 governorship election in the state were to revert to their former positions.
He said all other appointments into the public service that did not go through due process, involving biometrics would be reviewed by an EXCO committee.
