Mrs. Titilayo Toba - Ojo — “Mother General”.
...A Gentle Giant Bids the Service a Golden Farewell.
In the quiet corridors of the Ekiti State Local Government Service, there walks a woman whose presence has never been ordinary.
Mrs. Titilayo Toba _Ojo, fondly and reverently called "MOTHER GENERAL", stands as a living testimony that leadership is not merely a position—it is a calling wrapped in compassion, competence, and character.
Colleagues describe her as pragmatic yet poetic in reasoning, logical yet tender in heart. She did not wear.
professionalism like a garment to be removed at sunset; she lived it as a creed. In meetings, her voice was calm but decisive. In moments of tension, her wisdom steadied the room. In seasons of uncertainty, she became both compass and anchor.
Where others saw routine, she saw purpose.
Where others saw limitations, she envisioned possibilities.
Her legacy is not archived in dusty files or sealed within office cabinets. It breathes in the lives she touched. It speaks in the confidence of officers she mentored. It shines in the academic pursuits she inspired and the moral standards she upheld.
When others saw impossibility or expectations, she envisioned a empirical reality.
When others overlooked potential, she nurtured greatness.
When many hesitated, she propelled her team toward academic conquest and personal elevation.
For Mother General, mentorship was not administrative duty—it was spiritual stewardship.
In a system often defined by policies and protocols, she introduced humanity.
Political and civil service heavyweights may debate power and structure, but none can dismiss her astonishing brilliance—civil, social, Christian, and domestic.
She is generous without noise.
Humorous without effort.
Intelligent without arrogance.
Humane without boundaries.
Her office became more than a workspace—it became a sanctuary of guidance, encouragement, and growth.
As the month of February ,gently draws the curtain on her civil service journey, gratitude fills the atmosphere. Yet this is not an ending. For Mrs. Titilayo Toba -Ojo, retirement is not a sunset—it is a sunrise.
Because women like her do not merely retire.
They transition into deeper relevance.
They ascend into broader purpose.
Her influence will continue to ripple through the Local Government Service and far beyond, shaping conversations, inspiring reforms, and uplifting families.
We celebrate not only an administrator but a mother, mentor, and moral compass. A woman whose Christian virtues illuminated her public service. A woman whose social brilliance balanced discipline with empathy. A woman whose name will echo long after office keys are handed over.
Let the applause rise gracefully.
Let the tributes gather like morning dew.
Let the celebration of greater heights begin.
For this farewell is only the tip of the iceberg.
Soon, echoes of a grander celebration will resound far beyond the service corridors.
To our formidable and dynamic Mother General of the LGSC—
Your story continues.
Your impact endures.
Your light remains.
