In a statement signed by Commissioner for Information and Communications, Kingsley Femi Fanwo, the state government noted that the appointment is indeed a round peg in a round hole as Mr. Ajayi has distinguished himself as a man who is committed to hard work, integrity and competence in the fight against criminality.
Governor Usman Ododo commended President Bola Tinubu for his eagle-eye talent, spotting prowess for rewarding one of the most brilliant security architects in the country with the well deserved appointment.
The Governor described Mr Ajayi as an astute crime fighter, intelligence gatherer and processor who will ensure that Nigeria hits the right spots to improve security.
“For years as the State Director of the DSS in Kogi State, Mr Adeola Oluwatosin Ajayi displayed exceptional commitment and knowledge in the area of crime fighting to make the State safe. Despite bordering ten other states, the DSS under his leadership in the State was able to curtail the activities of criminals in the State, earning him an indisputable reputation as a silent achiever whose work is seen more than heard.
“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR has once again displayed his undisputed quality of spotting exceptional talents and saddling them with the responsibility of making Nigeria a better place for us all.
“With the appointment of Mr Ajayi as the new leader in the Yellow House, we are confident that he will put his experience to bear to cripple criminality and ensure peace in Nigeria,” the statement said.
