Submitting the report of the screening committee, the Deputy Speaker, Abayomi Akinruntan, noted that Adelami has been confirmed to be a man of reputable character, well exposed, and also physically and mentally fit for the position.

In his response, Adelami thanked the governor for allowing him to serve the state.

He emphasised that his appointment was a call of duty and promised to work for the development of Ondo State and the country at large.

 

He also promised that he would promote a harmonious relationship between the state executive and the legislature.
