The Oyo State government, yesterday, named Alhaji Tomiwa Omolewa, as chairman of the Management Committee for the Park Management System (PMS), while Alhaji Kasali Ajisafe Lawal will serve as the Secretary.
A statement by the Chief Press Secretary to Governor Seyi Makinde, Mr. Sulaimon Olanrewaju, said the government had also ordered the reopening of the parks which had been under lock and key following the dissolution of the PMS Disciplinary Committee led by Alhaji Mukaila Lamidi (aka Auxiliary).
He said the new management team led by Omolewa, comprises members from all the major factions in the transport union.
The state government, had, in a bid to optimise available opportunities in the PMS, last Thursday, organised a town hall meeting where stakeholders came up with suggestions on how to improve the
system.
One of the suggestions was that the leadership of the PMS should have members from all the factions in the transport unions to ensure peace in the state. The constitution of the new team reflected that.
Apart from the chairman and secretary, other members of the management include: Alhaji Tajudeen Jimoh, Deputy Chairman; Kamardeen Idowu, Treasurer; Tirimisiyu Olowoposi, Financial Secretary; Abass Amolese, Organising Secretary; and Alhaji Hamidu Mustapha, Auditor.
Others are: Alhaji Abideen Ejiogbe, First Vice Chairman; Ganiyu Mojeed, First Trustee; Alhaji Musa Alubankudi, Second Trustee; Alhaji Rahman Akinsola Tokyo, Second Auditor; and Alhaji Wasiu Emiola, Public Relations Officer.
Speaking after the announcement, the new PMS chairman, Omolewa, said he would work towards ensuring peace across the state.
He said: “I thank Governor Seyi Makinde for counting me worthy of this position. I use this opportunity to assure the people of Oyo State and the government that there will be a difference in our attitude to work. I promise that the people will notice a significant difference in our operations as we assume office.”
