The Kogi State Governor, Idris Wada, has warned the state’s newly sworn-in commissioners not to abuse their positions or he would not hesitate to hand them over to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for prosecution.

He gave this warning yesterday during the swearing-in ceremony of 18 commissioners and 25 special advisers.

According to the Punch Newspapers, he advised them to shelve selfish conduct and put the interest of the state at the forefront of their service to the state. He further urged them to make hard work and honesty their watchword.

Wada called on the Kogi citizens to be patient while his administration works on delivering administrative and infrastructural development in all areas of the state. He assured the people that the promised development will be delivered before the end of his tenure in 2015.

The new commissioners, through Mrs. Hadiza Onotu, promised to serve the state with “utmost sense of honour and integrity” and thanked Wada for finding them worthy to be selected for the position.

Six women were among the newly appointed commissioners and special advisers.

Yes bro.I hope so.

the warning could be serious this time...lets watch.

Hmmmm once again the cockrel has sound out the call and has state his administration intentions.
We have had from his Brothers in the past sounding their horns how they would perform,but ended up given us eggs in our faces.They delivered corruption,ghost workers,unfinished projects,high unemployment,nepotism,tribalism,poor parastatals,hospitals without running water: beds.blankets,no ambulance for emergency services,ghost ministries were created; the list is endless.
If Gov.Capt. Wada is serious, let him first tell us how much money was handed over to him from the kogi state treasury by his inlaw?
He must also investigate all the unfinished projects and publish them not to cover up the tracks and corruptions left behind by his predecesure gov.Idris.
It is easy to say that he will handover any of his elected officials to EFCC if found to be corrupt or failed to deliver. My advise to him is simple,you can not plant seeds without cultivating the soil.
Investigate your inlaw and all his ex-cronies and publish your findings,then we can start to trust that your administration means business otherwise,stop making perverse statements Capt. Wada and tell us about the level of corruptions and maladministrations you inherited.
We are waiting your excellency.
