Egbemode to Osun Ministry staff: Let’s do things differently for better results

Mrs Funke-Egbemode

Commissioner for Information and Civic Orientation, Mrs Funke Egbemode

has charged Information Officers and other members of staff of the

Ministry to begin to do things differently so as to achieve a

different and better result.

The Commissioner stated this today during the maiden meeting with the

management staff and other members of staff of the Ministry held at

the government secretariat.

Mrs Egbemode explained that it is time for all to come together and

work as a team to achieve results and project the image of the state in

positive light to the rest of the world.

The Commissioner who said she would like to be seen as a team leader

pointed out that information officers should begin to see themselves

as correspondents in their various bits and ensure the adequate

coverage of all government activities.

While giving the assurance that the administration of Mr Adegboyega

Oyetola is ready to support the Ministry to achieve its mandate, the

Commissioner said the Governor is however expecting the Ministry of

Information and Civic Orientation to project the image of government

better than the way it used to be.

Mrs Egbemode, who gave the assurance that all challenges facing the

ministry will be carefully addressed with time, said she will ensure

that training of members of staff will continue to be her top priority

for optimum results.

Earlier in a welcome address, the Coordinating Director of the

Ministry, Mr Adebisi Popoola who expressed delight at having a

professional media person at the helms of the ministry said he is

hopeful that things will begin to take a new dimension.

He described Mrs Egbemode as a square peg in square space as the

entire ministry will be counting and relying on her experience as a

complete media practitioner to improve the fortunes of the entire

ministry.

Mr Adebisi then called on Information Officers as well as other

members of staff to join hands and cooperate with the Commissioner to

achieve success.

Present at the meeting were all department heads as well as other

members of staff of the Ministry as well as Corp members and students

on industrial training.
