‎Insideoyo.com has discovered 3 of Governor Abiola Ajimobi’s commissioners to be workaholic. Since they were inaugurated as commissioners, they have been up and doing, leaving many to be asking if they have future political ambition.

Read about the trio below:

‎Dr. Azeez Adeduntan: Trained at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife as a medical doctor, he returned after contesting the 2011 governorship under Labour Party, LP, to become health commissioner under Ajimobi.

A man who many had thought would not find it easy working with a no-nonsense Ajimobi has now turned out to be one of the most useful. It’s either he is creative or has a good think-tank as a week has never gone without him embarking on a project. He is full of ideas.

There is no doubt that Adeduntan, who is a cousin of late strongman of Ibadan politics- Lamidi Adedibu, ‎has his eyes on the number one seat in Oyo but that has not stopped him from performing.

The 63 years old surgeon has won many fans to his side with the yeoman job he is doing at the health ministry.

Prof. Adeniyi Olowofela: The geophysicist is another workaholic commissioner. Aside working longer hours, it is one week, one project. Many even said Olowofela, who was council chairman of Ido local government area, is committed to etching his name in gold. In fact, he seems to be the most busy out of the 3 commissioners that have held sway in the ministry of education, science and technology. His tenure has birthed many educational initiatives, whose fruits would become obvious in the coming months.

Hardly would you listen to the radio without hearing his names, at least every week.

Hon. Dauda Wasiu‎: ‘Azuzu’ as the Iseyin-born politician is not new in the terrain. He had held many political positions; he was commissioner for environment and later executive assistant to the governor (Oyo North) during the first term. He is now commissioner for works and transport. Despite his not having a related certificate, he has not been found wanting since he assumed office.

In fact, many call him ‘Engineer‎’ Wasiu, thinking he is acting like that because he has requisite experience in the field. Many even said he has always been restless, even before he was asked to man the ministry.
