The Oyo State Government has appointed a former secretary of the Park Management System (PMS) of the state, Oluwatomiwa Omolewa, as the new chairman of the agency.

It also appointed Kasali Lawal as the secretary of the PMS, an agency that runs commuter vehicle parks in the state. The appointments were announced in a press statement by the spokesperson of the state governor, Sulaimon Olanrewaju, on Sunday.

The state government last week removed Lamidi Mukaila, aka Auxiliary, as the chairman of the disciplinary committee of the PMS and sacked the entire management of the agency.

The police later raided a hotel linked to Auxiliary and declared him wanted after 20 guns were allegedly found in the facility.

The new appointments were made public after officials of the state government met with the stakeholders in the road transport sector.

Mr Olanrewaju’s statement reads in part, “Oyo State government has announced Alhaji Oluwatomiwa Omolewa, former Park Management System (PMS) Secretary, as the new Chairman.

“Alhaji Kasali Ajisafe Lawal aka Baba Bola is to serve as the secretary.

“This appointment is part of the reorganisation of the PMS embarked upon by the state government.”
