Oyo State Local Government Service Commission Hosts 2026 New Year Interfaith Ceremony
The Oyo State Local Government Service Commission (LGSC) recently convened its 2026 New Year Interfaith Prayer, Thanksgiving, and Awards event. This gathering united government officials, labour representatives, and commission employees to collectively reflect on achievements from the previous year and to reaffirm their dedication to delivering high-quality public service.
Celebrating Unity and Commitment to Service Excellence
During the ceremony, the Commission’s Chairman, Bashorun Akinwale Akinwole (Wolekanle), took the opportunity to commend Governor Seyi Makinde for his unwavering dedication to improving the welfare and working conditions of civil servants throughout Oyo State. His leadership has been instrumental in fostering a supportive environment for public sector workers, which has positively impacted service delivery across local government areas.
Strengthening Collaboration Among Stakeholders
The event also served as a platform to enhance cooperation between labour unions and government officials, emphasizing the importance of teamwork in achieving the commission’s goals. In recent years, such collaborative efforts have contributed to a 15% increase in employee satisfaction rates within the local government workforce, according to the latest state labor reports.
Looking Ahead: Renewed Vows for Effective Governance
As the commission steps into 2026, the ceremony reinforced a collective pledge to uphold transparency, efficiency, and accountability in public service. This renewed commitment aligns with Oyo State’s broader vision to modernize local governance and improve citizen engagement through innovative policies and digital transformation initiatives.
Inspiring Examples of Service Dedication
Similar to how the Lagos State Civil Service Commission recently launched a digital platform to streamline employee welfare programs, Oyo’s LGSC aims to implement comparable technological advancements. These initiatives are expected to enhance communication channels and provide timely support to staff, ultimately boosting productivity and morale.
