…praises Ekiti Speaker for his role in positive development
The Parliamentary Staff Association of Nigeria (PASAN), Ekiti State Chapter, is thrilled to express its heartfelt appreciation to His Excellency, Mr. Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji (BAO), Governor of Ekiti State, for approving the implementation of the Consolidated Legislative Salary Structure (CONLESS) for legislative staff. This landmark decision underscores the Governor’s determination to improve the welfare of the dedicated individuals who tirelessly contribute to the effective functioning of governance in Ekiti State.
In a statement by the PASAN Ekiti State Chairman, Comr. (Dr.) Gbenga Oluwajuyigbe described the approval of CONLESS as a commendable recognition of the hard work and dedication of legislative staff and a reinforcement of the values of fairness, equity, and shared prosperity that have become hallmarks of Governor Oyebanji’s administration.
“By ensuring that legislative staff receive commensurate compensation for their invaluable contributions, you have taken a significant step towards enhancing their morale and productivity,” Dr. Oluwajuyigbe said. “This ultimately benefits the people of Ekiti State, as it ensures that the legislative arm operates at optimal capacity to deliver on its mandate.”
The announcement of CONLESS has been met with jubilation among legislative staff, who view it as a tangible demonstration of the Governor’s genuine love, compassion, and commitment to fostering collaboration between the executive and legislative arms of government. Under Governor Oyebanji’s leadership, the legislative arm has witnessed unprecedented support, including the massive renovation of facilities and the activation of initiatives such as the House of Assembly Loans Board, to mention but a few..
In light of these developments, PASAN Ekiti State Chapter has formally declared its full support for the continuity of Governor Oyebanji’s administration. This support is a testament to the confidence that legislative staff have in his leadership and policies. It is also a clear indication that his administration’s efforts toward improving governance, transparency, and accountability are yielding positive results and garnering the trust and endorsement of vital stakeholders within the state.
Dr. Oluwajuyigbe further emphasized that this development aligns perfectly with the Governor’s mantra of shared prosperity, stating, “Your vision for Ekiti State is inspiring, and we look forward to seeing continued progress and development under your administration.”
As the legislative workforce celebrates this milestone, PASAN urges its members to reciprocate the Governor’s gesture by ensuring that the improved remuneration translates into higher performance and genuine commitment to duty. The union also calls for sustained qualitative measures to ensure that the system continues to prioritize the welfare of workers while maintaining the integrity and efficiency of the legislative arm.
