Gov. Abiodun Appoints SUBEB, OOUTH Board
-to inaugurate 10 boards on Tuesday
Governor of Ogun State, Prince Dapo Abiodun, has appointed chairman and members of the State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB).
In a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Kunle Somorin, the Governor also named chairman and members of the board of the Olabisi Onabanjo University Teaching Hospital (OOUTH), Sagamu.
The statement noted that 10 other boards, commissions and agencies previously named by the Government will be inaugurated on Tuesday, 29th September, 2020 at the June 12 Cultural Centre Kuto, Abeokuta at the 2pm prompt.
The statement said the inauguration of all appointed commissions and boards will be done in batches in compliance with COVID-19 protocols.
“These new boards are too important to the development of the Building Our Future Together Agenda because Basic Education is critical to that future we are building. The OOUTH was one of the first places I went upon assumption of office and the Committee we set up then made far-reaching recommendations that I am sure this Board would work on in order that this tertiary health institution fulfils the dreams of its founding fathers.
“Our Administration is firmly committed to restoring OOUTH to its enviable position as a training, research and healthcare facility. That’s why we are appointing people with rich and diverse experience to reengineer the Teaching Hospital. Our SUBEB too will fast-track our goal of Building Our Future Together and put our education on the path of excellent academic achievement and service delivery”, the statement said.
Governor Abiodun said the new appointees are forward-thinking managers who would discharge the onerous tasks thrust on them responsibly. He prayed that they will give their all to their assignments to move the State to the next level.
“As I have always stressed, the Building Our Future Together is more than a mantra. It is an overarching policy thrust that we will leave no stone unturned to actualize.

Celebrating Toks Wahab … Omoluabi Eko at 54
Celebrating Toks Wahab … Omoluabi Eko at 54
As Tokunbo Wahab turns 54, it is only fitting to celebrate not just the years, but the man he has consistently shown himself to be—one defined by kindness, humility, and a genuine love for people.
Yes, he is the Honourable Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources, and by every standard, he has done extremely well. His work, impact, and dedication in that office are evident for all to see. But that is not even the thrust of this write-up.
This is about the person.
A proud son of Epe in Lagos, he carries his roots with dignity and grace, reflecting the values of his heritage in the way he lives and relates with people. TKW… Omoluabi Eko—a true embodiment of character, respect, and integrity.
He is a man who shows up. Always willing to assist, to help, to give—without hesitation and without noise. His generosity is quiet, yet deeply impactful. His kindness is not occasional; it is who he is.
Those who know him closely will tell you he is incredibly accommodating. Easy to approach, easy to speak with, and always ready to make others feel comfortable, heard, and valued. There is a simplicity about him that is rare—no airs, no distance—just a calm, grounded presence.
He gives without announcing it. He supports without seeking recognition. He blesses lives in ways that may never be seen publicly, yet remain unforgettable to those who experience his goodwill.
In a world where many complicate things, he remains refreshingly simple. In a space where recognition is often chased, he chooses quiet impact. And when others might turn away, he steps forward.
As he marks this new chapter, we celebrate not just his life, but we also pray that God grants him many more meaningful years—years of continued service, impact, and grace to keep uplifting his people.
Happy 54th Birthday.
