GOVERNOR OKOROCHA PAYS NOVEMBER SALARIES TO CIVIL SERVANTS
ORDERS IMMEDIATE PAYMENT OF PENSIONS

ONWUASOANYA FCC JONES

In keeping to his promise of paying civil servants their salaries in advance, the governor of Imo State, His Excellency Owelle Rochas Okorocha had last week approved the payment of November salaries to all civil servants in the State, thereby, making history as the first and only governor to do so. This is as many States in the Federation are struggling to pay backlog of salaries to civil servants in their States.

Imo State is one of the few States in the country that is up-to-date in the payment of civil servants' salaries. Also, Imo civil servants are among the best paid and most motivated in the country. The government has also taken deliberate steps to cut down on corruption and indiscipline in the civil service, while programs are in place to ensure that highly productive civil servants are rewarded, making the Imo State Civil Service, one of the most competitive in the country.

From 2011 till date, the APC led Rescue Mission administration has employed more than 30,000 young graduates into the Imo State civil service, with the most recent been the employment of about 30 ICT savvy young graduates from each of the 305 wards in the State.

Meantime, the governor has assured that pensioners in the State shall smile to the banks starting from next week, as every arrangement has been concluded to pay the senior citizens their pensions.
