OSOGBO- 14/11/2024 – osunstate.gov.ng
Governor Ademola Adeleke has approved changes in the leadership of the state’s climate change team with a view to ramp up the push against the negative effect of climate change in the state.
The Governor subsequently directed the abolition of the office of Senior Special Assistant on Climate Change and the redeployment of the SSA on Climate Change, Prince Moruf Adedapo, out of the sub sector to the pool of SSAs.
The Governor also directed the movement of the office of the consultant to the state on climate change and renewable energy from the Ministry of Environment to the Governor’s Office.
The consultant, Prof Chinwe Obuaku will henceforth be reporting to the Governor directly as a strategy to give bite to the administration’s push to fast track implementation of adaptation and mitigate climate actions.
As part of the leadership reforms, Governor Adeleke further directed that liaison between the state government and federal agencies as well as development partners on climate matters should be coordinated by the state consultant.
Stakeholders are also advised to relate with the state consultant on climate related matters as the office of SSA on Climate Change no longer exists.

Spokesperson to the State Governor.
