His resignation was made known on Saturday in a statement by his media office, AMBO Media Office.

According to the media office, his resignation is in compliance with Section 84 (12) of the 2022 Electoral Act (as amended), to enable him participate in the Osun State governorship primary, scheduled for next month.

Oyebamiji expressed gratitude to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for finding him worthy of national service, noting that his time in government at that level, afforded him the opportunity to tap from a wealth of national-level experience as the chief executive of a critical agency like NIWA.

He was quoted as saying: “This is what I consider a rare opportunity that I will live to cherish forever. I equally thank my boss and the Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Alhaji Adegboyega Oyetola, for recommending me to the President for the appointment in the first instance.

“As I prepare for another phase in my public service journey, I carry with me the exposure and experience garnered at the national level, which I believe will come handy wherever I find myself in the future.”
