The Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun has
appointed TPL Amope Ajibola Chokor as the new Head of Service in the State.
On Friday, the former Head of Service, Engr Lanre
Bisiriyu, alongside 11 Permanent Secretaries bowed out of the public service of
the State.
An elaborate valedictory programme was organised to
mark their retirement from active service, where Gov. Abiodun promised to apply
merit in the appointment of Engr Bisiriyu's successor.
According to the Governor, the State has a legacy of
excellence to protect in its public service that produced the likes of Chief
Simeon Adebo and A.K Degun of blessed memory.
TPL Amope Ajibola Chokor comes into her new position
with impeccable pedigree and service record.
An accomplished town planner and administrator, she
hails from Imapa Quarters at Ota, in Ado-Odo/ Ota Local Government area of the
State.
Until her
appointment, Mrs Chokor (nee Bankole) was Permanent Secretary in the State
Civil Service Commission.
A statement by Kunle Somorin, Chief Press Secretary
to Governor Abiodun said: "The Ogun State Government, under Governor
Abiodun knows that TPL Chokor, who has proven over the years to understand the
system, would put to use her vast knowledge in the management of the State
Civil Service and also maintain the high standard that the service is known
for".
The appointment takes immediate effect.
