Stop Leaking Govt Information: Ondo Workers Warned by dtemidare: 8:54am On Aug 03, 2012
The Ondo State Head of Service, Mr. Ajose Kudehinbu, yesterday warned all civil servants in the state to stop disclosing government secrets. Kudehinbu, who gave the warning at a news conference to kick start this year’s Public Service Week, said some politicians in the state have deployed means of using civil servants to leak public documents.

“I am sending out this warning to all civil servants in the state. Stop giving out official documents in your custody to politicians. It is unprofessional and unconstitutional,” he said.

On the recent solidarity rally embarked upon by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) on behalf of Governor Olusegun Mimiko, Kudehinbu described it as the constitutional right of the union.

“It is constitutional right of civil servants to support any good government in the country, but they must not be bias in doing so”, he said.

He commended the present government for increasing workers salaries, saying, “workers in Ondo State have in the past been short-changed. But, when Dr. Olusegun Mimiko’s administration came, he reviewed the salary of workers by increasing it to N22,000 monthly”.

what we don't seem to understand is that, we have allowed ourselves to used by elements who are not friendly to our government in other to bring it down. its starts by espionage, stealing of government documents, unexplained disappearance of documents. they are all the same thing. some unscrupulous elements in that state have resorted to sealing and then selling government documents to strangers and even to foreigners. it is wrong! it is a treasonable offence which purnishable under the law.

I Pray that the law catches up with them.

As good citizens we are not expected to be told to report cases of this nature to security and law enforcement agencies. I am not telling us to do this rather am saying that its binding on us as citizens of Nigeria by the 1999 constitution.

So what if they are actions geared towards running the Government down. if the Government is bad, I believe it should be. Enough of the BS.. . I am not for any Governor or politician so I do care who is being brought down.

OH!! So you mean if your father of Uncle is at the seat of power, either of them should not be brought down if not doing good work? LOL . . . . Abegi!!

The day government starts hiding Information from the people, thats the day corruption and bad governance starts..

The Government belongs to the people and should have no secrets (except its of a technological nature that they intend to pattent or that gives them favor in military terms over rivals)..

Sure, you can choose to wait till the next election OR you make public whatever ills the Governor is hiding and see if you can cause the people to demand an impeachment right away.

Ask your oga- Mimiko- what he's trying to hide. He's a criminal and that's why he's afraid. He's celebrating water fountain and events hall as achievement after he has over spent d budget. He's going to end up in jail with his Assembly collaborator who rubber stamped his extra budgetary spending. You are one of his apologist obviously. Tell him his days are numbered.

If good information about the commendable performance of the government is leaked, there is noting bad in it.
But when wary of information being leaked means the government is doing something that they wouldn't want the public to know about.

No one is saying sell it . . . I am saying if you see Government doing wrong, it is really our responsibility as citizens to reveal the truth. Now in what way you do it depends on you. leaking classified information is criminal but I think not all leaks fall under that classification.

Confidentiality is a guiding principle of professionalism and one would expect civil servants to also adhere to such professional standards. Seeing official documents flying all over the newspapers or the internet is appalling as it shows the flaws in the system.

That said, I think it is important to make channels for whistle-blowing and the protection of whistle-blowers in the civil service. This would ensure a level of protection for official documents.

This practice of running to the public to disclose official information is very crude and must be discouraged. It would be more appropriate to make formal channels for disclosure of information.
