The governor also announced Kasali Lawal, fondly called Baba Bola, as the PMS secretary.

He said the appointment was part of the reorganisation of the PMS embarked upon by the state government, adding that the new management team comprises members from all the major factions in the transport union.

Other members of the management include the Deputy Chairman, Tajudeen Jimoh; Treasurer, Kamardeen Idowu; Financial Secretary, Tirimisiyu Olowoposi; Organising Secretary, Abass Amolese; and Auditor, Hamidu Mustapha Were.
