A group, Lagos Youth Initiative for Good Governance (LYIGG) has commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for re-appointing Honourable Abdul Wasiu Kayode Bawa-Allah as the Commissioner to represent the state at the Federal Character Commission (FCC), reports thegazellenews.com.
The group also commended the President for ensuring leadership balancing at the Commission since its establishment in 1996.
LYIGG, speaking via a statement signed by its President, Comrade Adeshina Adegoke, described the re-appointment of Bawa-Allah as commendable and worthy.
We commend President Tinubu for re-appointing Kayode Bawa-Allah. His appointment is a fitting round peg in a round hole.
“Bawa-Allah is a committed, loyal, diligent and cerebral man. He has proven to be a worthy representative of the state during his first term and we know he will surely perform better during his second term,” the group said.
The group also commended President Tinubu for ensuring leadership balancing at the FCC, which it noted will ensure effective and efficient service delivery at the Commission.
“With the appointment of Hon. Ayo Huyalat Omidiran as the Chairman of the Federal Character Commission, President Tinubu has broken a jinx. This will be the first time a Southerner will be appointed as the substantive Executive Chairman of the Commission since its establishment in 1996,” the group said.
LYIGG stated further that the appointment has also ensured leadership balancing at the Commission with the Chairman coming from the South and the Secretary from the North.
“For the past five years, both the Chairman and the Secretary of the Commission have been Northerners, which was against the basis the Commission was established in the first place,” the group said.
