According to him these are indebtedness that are difficult to pay back. They are eternal.
To him, these attainments are not ordinary. They are historical. They are legendary. He said there is no way his meteoric ascendance in politics will be written without devoting sizeable portions to the divine role his former boss played in his life.
The Governor directed the Board to re-present the case of over 200 staff of the Agency recruited through the LGEAs and whose careers were stagnated on GL 7 for years to be reconsidered for mainstreaming into the State Civil Service.

While pledging the unalloyed commitments of the management and Staff of the Board to the success of the present administration which he described as a continuation of Akeredolu’s government, Olabimtan said all the Education Secretaries from the Eighteen Local Government Area Education Authorities LGEAs are strong supporters of the Governor.
According to him each of the Education Secretaries is a grass root politician and their commitments to the present administration especially your ambition to continue as the Governor come 2024 remains samcrosact.
He appealed to the Governor to provide vehicles to the Board as well as the Education Secretaries to enable them effectively discharge their supervisory functions at the LGEAs level.
