The Governor, who described Ajayi as a highly professional Intelligence Officer with great insight, said his first contact with the new DSS boss was when he served as Chief Detail to the first Military Administrator of Ekiti State, the Late Col. Inua Bawa upon the creation of the state in 1996, adding that he demonstrated professionalism and integrity as a young officer then.
“So, it’s not surprising that he has risen to the zenith of his profession, and appointed by the President to head the Department of State Service.
