The Commissioner for Youth Development in Ekiti State, Hon. Adesola Gold Adedayo, has promised to strive hard and justify the confidence reposed in his knack and expertise by Governor Biodun Oyebanji to deliver in his current position.

Adedayo said it would be a great disservice to the people of the state for the appointees to disappoint the people in view of the current economic hardship and the enormous task required to put a soothing balm on their pains, describing their appointments as one that needed to be justified with scintillating performances.

“Let me appreciate our dear leader, Governor Oyebanji for the honour he has done me and my family. This is a veritable opportunity to etch my name in gold as someone who got an appointment and distinguished himself in the position he was saddled with.

“I promise that I shall refrain from any corrupt practice and act of illegally amassing wealth in the name of holding political position. This position is held in trust for the people and I won’t disappoint.

“I shall focus on the six- point agenda of this administration that I am well abreast of its terms and stipulations. I knew what the governor wished to bring on board and I shall work hard for the realization of making Ekiti a land of shared prosperity and destination of choice for investors.

“The task is not going to be easy due to paucity of funds and other unforeseen circumstances. But through prudent management of our scarce resources, Ekiti can become a model because we have the economic blueprint and superfluous human resources to drive the vision.

“I promise to be a goal getter and good team mate to my colleagues, who have also been enlisted to drive the vision of the present government. I knew that working at cross purposes would only derail our lofty dream, so I shall remain focused and diligent at work”.
