The Acting Provost of Osun State College of Education, Ila-Orangun (OSCCE ILA), Dr L.A Jimoh and joint Labour Union of the school which comprises NASU, COEASU, SSUCOEN has shower encomiums and lauded the significant approach of Osun State Governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke to reabsorbed back into service, previously disengaged workers of the institution.
In a reaction to enquiries made by PRIMEREPORTERSNG to confirm if the news about the re-engagement of the previously sacked workers is true, the Provost of the School, Dr Lasisi Jimoh said,
“Good morning sir, it is true. Eleven staff are the last set of 72 members of staff that were out of insensitivity and brazen injustice, disengaged by the previous government in Osun state (2016). In fact, this singular action of State Government led by the Asiwaju of Ede land amounts to restoration of life embellished with hope,” the Provost stated while also applauding the Governor for the gesture.
In a jointly released statement by the Labour Union of the school to thank the Governor, the Chairman of NASU in the school, Com. Adesegun Obasanjo, COEASU Chairman, Com. Akinpelumi Ojukokurolola and SSUCOEN Chairman, Com. Owolabi Oyebamiji, said the action of the Governor has “not only provided the much-needed relief to these individuals who had sought for clemency in vain from the past administration in the state, but has also restored hopes and stability in their lives.”

THE JOINT LABOUR UNIONS OF OSUN STATE COLLEGE OF EDUCATION, ILA-ORANGUN
LETTER OF APPRECIATION
On behalf of the Joint Unions in the College, we are writing to express our heartfelt appreciation to His Excellency, the Executive Governor of Osun State, Asiwaju Nurudeen Jackson Ademola Adeleke, and his team, the Hon. Commissioner for Education, the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Education, the Governing Council headed by Dr Peter Adebayo Babalola, the College Management, and his team, under the able leadership of Dr L.A. Jimoh for re-engaging Nine members of staff who had lost their jobs between 2013 and 2016. This act of compassion and support has not only provided the much-needed relief to these individuals who had sought for clemency in vain from the past administration in the state, but has also restored hopes and stability in their lives.
Losing a job can be a devastating experience, both emotionally and financially. The uncertainty and stress that come with unemployment can take a toll on one’s mental and physical well-being. However, by re-engaging these Nine individuals, the government has not only alleviated their financial burdens but has also given them a sense of purpose and belonging.
We commend the government for recognizing the value and potential of these individuals and for providing them with hope and a second chance to contribute to the society.
This act of kindness and generosity is a testament to the Imole government’s commitment to supporting its citizens and fostering a sense of community and inclusivity.
We are truly grateful for the government’s efforts in re-engaging these Nine members of staff and for demonstrating compassion and empathy towards those in need. Your actions have not gone unnoticed, and we are confident that they will have a lasting impact on the lives of these individuals and their families.
Thank you once again for your unwavering support and dedication to helping those in need. Your kindness and generosity are truly appreciated.
Thank you, Mr Governor
God bless Osun State College of Education Ila Orangun
God bless Osun State
God bless Nigeria.
In his address on assumption of office as the new Acting Provost of the School on 29th of January, 2024, Dr Lasisi Jimoh had said, “I seek the collaboration and support of everyone to uplift the standards of the college. I assure you, there won’t be any vendetta or vindictiveness in this new administration. There will not be any discrimination, this is the era of unity and joy” an evidence of what Governor Ademola Adeleke just did with reabsorption back into service, some workers of the institution that were disengaged since 2016.
