Abiodun, in a statement on Thursday by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Kunle Somorin,  described the appointment as a further validation of the worth, selflessness and people’s orientedness of Hon. Akinlade. 

“He has always been a man of the people and there’s no doubt that his choice by Mr. President resonates very well with our people”, the Governor was quoted as saying.

“Hon Akinlade is a square peg in a square hole. I have no doubt that he would acquit himself creditably, as he has always done.

“The record of his achievements in the parliament, his attraction of Federal Government projects and appointments to his constituency in particular and the State in general are enviable. I recall how he rallied support as the Deputy Director General of our Campaign Organisation during the last election and ensure our success at the polls”, Abidoun explained.

The governor prayed for divine wisdom, understanding and knowledge from God to enable him succeed as the commissioner representing Ogun State at the FCC.
