Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN), Osun State Chapter has congratulated a former Deputy Governorship candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in the last governorship election, Mr. Lawal Azeez Olayemi over his appointment as the new Commissioner for Youths and Sports in the state.
The sports journalists in Osun commended Governor Gboyega Oyetola for considering Olayemi saying that the young politician merits the call for service.
Osun SWAN in a statement signed by its Chairman, Adeyemi Aboderin and Secretary, Timothy Agbor in Osogbo on Thursday, expressed optimism that the appointment of Mr. Olayemi will take sports to a higher level.
The association however urged him to foster a better working relationship between his office and sports writers in the state with a view to promoting and developing sports in the state.

“We advise the new commissioner to work with media practitioners in the state who have cognate experiences in sports. Doing this would propell sports to greater heights," the statement reads.
Osun SWAN then prayed God to grant Olayemi the wherewithal to excel in his new assignment.
