Few hours after his inauguration into office as governor of Ekiti state, Ayodele Fayose has announced his first set of appointments.
The civil servants in the state, who have been on strike for two months strike, also called off their strike in solidarity with the governor.
During the inauguration ceremony, Fayose disclosed that he would appoint an aide on stomach infrastructure to prove that he was not moved by the attempt to ridicule the people of the state, who were said to have voted for him based on his donation of food items.
To match his words with action, Fayose named Sunday Omosilade as his special assistant on special duties and stomach infrastructure and also appointed Modupe Alade as secretary to the state government.
