The leadership of Ekiti Likeminds Group, has urged Governor Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji to evaluate the capacity of individuals before making cabinets appointments.

Oni said: ” Barrister Ojo’s track record shows that he is abreast with the assignment ahead and he has a very good knowledge of the constitution in relation to how democratic leadership works in Disapora relations, having obtained masters in international law and international relations and democratic politics, hence he was tagged an Illustrious son of Ilogbo-Ekiti who contributed greatly to Governor Oyebanji’s emergence as Governor. He is a party faithful and loyalist to the core principles and ideology of progressive democracy.
Expressing optimism that Governor Oyebanji will grant their request, the group said Barrister Ojo has changed the lives of many in Ekiti State, mostly in Ido/Osi local government, emphasising that if the Governor carried out a survey on their claims, he would see that all they have said was true.
