Ekiti State Commissioner for Works and Transportation, Kayode Oso, has resigned his appointment, citing failing health as reason for his action.
This was confirmed in a press statement issued by Secretary to the State Government, Dr Modupe Alade.
“Mr. Kayode Oso has worked assiduously to add value to this administration going by his effort towards the development of our state.
“In his letter of resignation, which has been accepted by His Excellency, Peter Ayodele Fayose, Oso stated that he decided to resign to attend to his health challenges,” Alade said.

Alade’s statement concluded: “We wish him (Oso) quick recovery. The government of Ekiti State will stand by him while he overcomes his health challenges.”
