Adeleke Killing Civil Servants Morale With Continuous Extension of HoS, Accountant General’s Tenure

Dialogue 365 has berated Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke for continuous extension of tenure of the Head of Service, Elder Samuel Ayanleye Aina and Accountant-General, Rasheed Alabi.

The group in a statement issued on Saturday by its Convener, Waheed Saka said Governor Adeleke is killing civil servants’ morale with continuous extension of Head of Service and the Accountant General.

Saka hinted that there is growing disquiet in Osun State Civil Service which may affect productivity and commitment of Workers to duties.

According to him, the Governor appointed the duo in 2022 upon assumption of duties and extended their tenure in 2024. The Head of Service and Accountant Genera’s extended tenure ends January 2026. It’s sadden that Governor Adeleke is scheming to extend their tenure again.

“What Governor Ademola Nurudeen Jackson Adeleke is doing in Osun State Civil Service would demoralise Civil servants. Are we saying there are not qualified and competent hands to takeover the position of Head of Service and Accountant General. The Civil servants are dying in silence. Nobody to speak up on their behalf.” He explained.

The group therefore implored Veterans and Osun Leaders to intervene by advising Governor Adeleke to reconsider his stance on these key appointments in the State Civil Service.
