Osun Justifies Dissolution Of Statutory Commissions

Osun State commissioner for information and public enlightenment, Hon. Kolapo Alimi, has insisted that Governor Ademola Adeleke acted within the requirements of the law in dissolving all statutory commissions almost a year after he assumed office.
Alimi in a statement he made available to newsmen in Osogbo, said the governor received the best legal advice before taking the decision, positing that the dissolved commissions suffered legal deficiencies in their making.
The secretary to the state government (SSG), Teslim Igbalaye, on Monday announced the dissolution of the State Civil Service Commission, the Judicial Service Commission, Osun State Independent Electoral Commission and Osun State House of Assembly Service Commission.
Defending the actiosolution, the commissioner said the commissions were set up under “the state of Osun”, a platform already declared illegal by a court of competent jurisdiction.
