Staff of the Ogun State Ministry of Forestry have been urged to remain positive and work as a united team in order to achieve the Ministry’s objectives in the New Year.
Commissioner for Forestry, Engr. Taiwo Oludotun, gave the charge while addressing staffers during a prayer session organised by the Ministry.
According to him, no task is insurmountable when approached with a positive mindset and strong teamwork, noting that every staff member must remain focused on the ministry’s set targets.
Engr. Oludotun disclosed that the Ministry had been assigned ambitious goals for the year, stressing that collective efforts would be required to meet them. He added that the government had created and would still continue to provide an enabling working environment with the provision of essential facilities that would enhance productivity.
He mentioned the solar lighting systems and walkie-talkies among recently acquired equipment intended for smooth operations within the Ministry.
The Commissioner further revealed that ongoing tree-planting exercises across forest reserves in the State had assisted the forests to be active and less accessible for kidnappers, land grabbers and militant groups.
In his remarks, Permanent Secretary in the Ministry, Dr. Adekunle Oyesanwen, advised staffers to adhere strictly to due process and ensure that official communication pass through the appropriate administrative channels.
