Gov. Abiola Ajimobi of Oyo on Tuesday announced the downsizing of the state’s ministries from 23 to 13. A similar announcement was made yesterday by Gov. Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna who downsized from 19 to 13.

Gov. Ajimobi disclosed the reduction in ministries when he inaugurated the 8th Assembly in the state.

The governor urged the legislature to cooperate and collaborate with the Executive in order to create conducive atmosphere for building their desired state.

“Our desire to embark on the foregoing, among others, is borne out of our ardent desire to make life more abundant for the good people of Oyo State.

“Likewise, for the state to attain the desired global status that she deserves.’’

He expressed his admiration for the people of the state, who ”defied all known distractions to break the mythical or contrived yoke of 39 years of `’no governor ever secured a second term at Agodi Government House”.

Ajimobi said that his vision was to make the state a place where everyone could be whatever he or she positively desired.
