All political office holders in Oyo State have been sacked and the state Executive Council dissolved.
Gov. Seyi Makinde gave the order in a letter signed by the Chairman, Transition and Inauguration Committee, Mr Segun Ogunwuyi, who doubles as the Chief of Staff to the Governor.
The letter said on Tuesday in Ibadan, that Makinde directed all the affected appointees to handover government properties in their custody to the most senior civil servant in their respective Ministries, Departments and Agencies.
Makinde, however, excluded political office-holders in statutory Commissions from the directive.
The governor appreciated the contributions of the affected appointees to the development of the state, wishing them successes in their future endeavours.
