The Governor of Ebonyi State, Governor David Umahi has called for the immediate sack of some staff at the State University (EBSU).

The governor made the call while swearing-in local government area chairmen and other appointees at the state capital, Abakaliki.

Governor David Umahi noted that the state university is overstaffed and has to be reduced to a bearable number.

However, he asked the management and staff of the University to make sacrifices of 20 percent of their salaries.

"I appeal to EBSU to make sacrifices. I am happy that the board members are here. When the Federal institution, FUNAI university was challenged, every worker there sacrificed 20 percent of their salaries for the period of one year."

"EBSU must make sacrifices. EBSU must reduce their workforce and those being reduced, I can give them money under SME to start businesses."
