Seyi Makinde, has appointed Kolade Felix Ojo as the Secretary of Saki West Local Government, with Segun Olujimi and Lateefat Yekeen serving as assistant secretaries. The appointments were conveyed through a letter addressed to the Executive Chairman of Saki West LG, Hon. Gbenga Olaleye Akinola.
Kolade Felix Ojo, who is the Chairman of the Accord Party in Oyo State, has been entrusted with dual responsibilities. In addition to his role as Secretary of Saki West LG, he will serve as the political head of Asabari LCDA.
