Ekiti State Governor Biodun Oyebanji has initiated a major restructuring of his administration ahead of his second term, which begins on October 16, 2026. The governor has dissolved various boards, commissions, and parastatals, as well as terminated the appointments of political office holders across the state. This decision, which takes immediate effect, comes as the administration winds down its first term in preparation for the inauguration of the second term.
However, statutory boards such as the State Independent Electoral Commission, Civil Service Commission, House of Assembly Service Commission, and Judicial Service Commission remain intact. The move has been seen as an effort to reposition the administration for the upcoming term.
