The Ekiti state Head of Service, (HOS) Dr. Gbenga Faseluka, has been given one week to distribute promotion letters to the over 45,000 civil servants who recently sat for qualifying interview and passed.

Gov. Ayo Fayose of Ekiti gave the one-week ultimatum on Saturday to Faseluka in Ado Ekiti.

The governor gave the order at a news conference in Ado Ekiti.

He also said that his administration was set to fulfil an earlier promise of employing over 2,000 new hands into the state public service.

He said he would personally supervise and monitor the process of recruiting the new workers, so as to guide against any form of favouritism.

Fayose said that those to be employed would cut across all the 16 local government areas of the state without applying political or religious attachment.

“In my administration; the people of Ekiti know my style, you do not need to know the governor, a big man or any member of his cabinet before you get what is due to you

“Once you are tested and deemed to be qualified, you will be taken without the so-called connection that is the norm in most places,’’ he said.

The governor, however, alleged that certain persons and political parties were attempting to buy no less than 200,000 Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) yet to be collected by their legitimate owners.

He alleged that if they succeeded, they would use them to rig next month’s gubernatorial election coming up on July 14.

The governor appealed to those who registered but had not collected their PVCs to go for them to prevent any form of rigging.

However, Mr Taiwo Gbadegesin, the Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the Independent Electoral Commission (INEC) in the state, denied the allegation.

He said that it was not possible to swap the smart cards for anyone whose name was not registered with it.

Desperation.

Fayose is desperate and afraid of something

45,000 workers in Ekiti?in that Ekiti State?talk of an overbloated Civil Service.

This is what the fear of FAYEMI can lead to

Fayose is really becoming desperate about winning the next election. He's owing workers about 8 months salaries and he wants to hang more burden on the neck of the incoming government by employing an additional 2000 workers and promoting 45,000 existing staff. The same workers he refused to promote since 2014.

This level of desperation can only push the state into more financial troubles. Who will pay the promotion arrears of the 45,000 workers? Even if Eleka wins, how will he cope with the huge liabilities that he will be inheriting? This is not good politics at all.

The same problem always lack of credible candidate.
One will be speaking fonhe and be acquiring debt to enrich his party another will be manipulating the grassroot with peanut and cosmetic humility display and embezzling .

Fayose = problem
Fayemi= chaos


Incompetent fvcks


#Get that visa

We Yoruba muslims that supported Buhari June 12 declaration also support Fayose on this....

This is not desperation in PDP voice. You promote staff you refused to clear their salary arrears.

The fulani herdsmen will not like this news.

GavelSlam:


Fayemi is in chaotic but you can say he's light years ahead of the populace.

I'm always Frank about elections.; Ekiti people should vote whoever they like and what they get they should accept.

Light years ahead in deceit?
