Gov Adams Oshiomhole of EdoState has sworn in Mr. Jerry E.
Obazele as the new Head of Service with a charge to reposition the
service to meet modern challenges.
Speaking after the new Head of Service had subscribed to the relevant oath-of- office, Governor Oshiomhole congratu-lated him on his well-deserved appointment.
On Mr. Obazele’s choice as the new helmsman in the Edo State Civil
Service, the Governor had this to say: “There would be many who are
competent and eligible, but at any point in time it is only one person
that God will choose to head a system. For the records, let me say that
your appointment is based strictly on merit”.
While speaking further on his choice as the new HOS, Oshiomhole said “I have looked at the list of the Permanent Secretaries, on the conventional approach of seniority, you are probably number three or number four. That is when you use the criteria of the last appointment as permanent secretary. In my view this is not the best way to measure and to determine seniority.
Oshiomhole who reminded the new HOS of the importance of the oath-of-office said “the problem of the country is that after subscribing to the oath, because it is not juju, some believe that the oath- of-office is a mere formality that is not meant to be obeyed”.
