Lolololol I thought their Governor said very soon they will not need federal allocations?

I love this.this is a smart and good policy.what do they need 100,000 workers for? How can govt spend 90% of its revenue on 100,009 workers while leaving nothing for the remaining 9 million? Cc fergie001, anansek

Thanks for fulfilling your campaigns promises, kontiniu.

Kaduna state like most northern states in Nigeria have been living false life.

They are supposed to go into agriculture for internally generated revenue.

But they wait for crude oil money shared through federal allocations from ABUJA FCT.

Governor Obaseki gave a warning this past week on the dangers of waiting for FREE MONEY.

WILL NIGERIA GOVERNORS HEED THE WORDS OF GOVERNOR OBASEKI OF EDO STATE?

If Nigeria breaks today, Northerners will suffer. I have just confirmed it. See most of them on jumbo federal allocation already going bankrupt just because of reduced allocation whereas states like Ebonyi and Anambra that had been receiving small allocations from FG are still paying salaries on time and building world class airports.

paulsoniv:
I'm from Kaduna State, my parents are civil servants and believe me when I say this move is necessary
Most workers are unqualified, ghost workers even yet they receive the highest pay
Most senior nurses and matrons and directors are going
Even though it is tough but it is for the benefit of the state

Despite this the important thing is that he's recruiting more workers, young graduates that are hungry to work
I just pray he pays their settlement so that they can start a business or something

Way to go Mr Shortie
Wailers over to you

u are sick....pray let your both parent not to b involved..

Most agencies of government are just revenue guuping avenues. They are redundant, unproductive and portray a danger for the future.
take an example of the ministry of works in most Nigeria state , they still contract out common road maintenance and most government rot away without basic maintenance. Then why on Earth do we have that agency if all they do is sign papers and sit in the office to gossip.

Nevertheless, the political class needs to take the first step in cutting the enormous cost of government before they can lay the burden of the incompetency on the masses.

Nigerians need to beware of what is coming, the economy is though ask yourself what have you done differently to survive in trying times?

Let us help you out with our project, live a good life today.

A word is enough...

truth is bitter but lets say it


is dangote otedola and bill gates working for govt?




most big business owners get there money from business not by sitting in office for thirty days pushing pencils and staying at home during corona lockdown doing nothing and still getting paid



if we say the truth we will die, if we dont we will die


the truth is bitter but lets say the truth, most of the igr for most states are from,entrepreneurs and small businesses, many big men and companies dont pay taxes, they evade taxes



kudos to HELLRUFAI, I DONT LIKE HIM BUT HE IS ON POINT ON THIS ONE

Why is no one hitting the nail on the head and talking about curbing population explosion..

Bill's should be passed, awareness should be created on controlling the Nigerian population..

Of what use is a 210m population with over 33% unemployed, 10m out of school, 4m in IDP camps, 100m below poverty benchmark while sweeping away the middle class... of what use really?..

Religion and culture will not allow that!!

Totally agree. 100,000 running Kaduna state?... doing what?. He can cut that figure down to 25,000 while deploying technology to bridge any gaps. The problem is there are MDA's for everything under the sun just as at the Federal level. If Nigeria is properly structured you don't need more that five to seven items on the exclusive list covered by ministries, the rest can be handled by Commissions which are essentially private partnerships of which everyone is paid according to performance. No government liability there.

Transportation, Petroleum, Communications, Works & Housing, Sports, Tourism, Science & Technology amongst many should not be government businesses but government regulatories, government refereeing only and Commissions suffice.

If I was a governor I would reform my state's tax system and end blanket rates. I will rather collect targeted levies that are project or sector specific for exclusive items and sell specific bonds for PPP's.

nigeria problem is population but nobody is interested in this conversation.
Boko haram, bandits will continue recruiting stray children, the resources is shrinking while population is exploding that is a recipe for disaster

Muyiwaipere:
How on earth do you expect them to survive ?

You want to add to you bandits numbers?

Issokay o...we are watching in HD

I guess he will give them severance allowance to start making a living.
It will certainly not be easy starting a business without experience but I bet you some serious minded once will make good use of the money by doubling their income and will even thank the Gov in future

Truth be told, this is going to be a difficult move to execute but highly recommended not only for Kaduna state but the entire states of the federation and the Federal service personnel.

Less than 1% of the population of a state cannot be consumint the entire monthly allocation. This same civil servant are also frustrating business in the name that they are not be paid well.

Can't imagine people are employed only to be frustrating people trying to setup business that will pay tax that will be use to pay their salary.

It's only an unintelligent fool like you that wouldn't know that Kaduna State Civil Service is filled with indigenes & muslims...not ipods.
But continue to sound off like the lunatic u are.

heendrix:


He's actually targeting Igbos

Mokason288:
Hell rufai we know you are targeting Christain’s
And southern Kaduna

Continue God is watching you

are you actually civilize? Religionist, we've noticed your contributions to national downfall; you're worst than the policians themselves.

The decision is painful......but make me a Governor today, that will be the first thing I will do for my State.

Set up a Committee and provide a criteria to ease people out.....pay them off, let them use the cash and re-invest in private business and pay me tax.

I am sure he is taking to southern Kaduna civil servants

"Population explosion", whatever that means, is not the problem! China "exploded" population wise long time ago, yet it's now the biggest super power around. The Chinese economy alone can withstand an international blockade for years with the country basically trading within it's borders!

Problem is not population explosion! Nigeria can do with half a billion people! Problem lies with the alarming lack of efforts to skill a reasonable amount of this population so they can actively contribute to a modern economy. The lack of skilled manpower is the problem not the population! And I think the Kaduna dwarf is once again right on this one.

The reason Nigeria is on her knees financially today is because every politician has gone to their villages to recruit everyone in sight into the civil service both at state levels and at the federal level. With increased minimum wage levels, the burden to pay workers has now become overbearing. They started this practice in the 70s to share "oil booty" after the war. They're now killing the country with it..

Good points, but i think there maybe some holes in your analysis..

1 - China curbed its population with it's one child policy which ended a few years ago spanning over 20years of the practise.

2 - Cjina does not have the extremely bad indices we have.

3 - if we are talking about Skilling up, we should be talking about factories and industries aswell that mops up that skilled populace. Which we dont have neither do we have the neccessary amenities to make one possible in the nearest future.

4 - The chinese Govt runs on communism and pays its industries the differences to makes its market the cheapest in the world, thereby rendering useless most indigenous industries of other nations.

5 - Yes population explosion is a major problem especially in Nigeria because it's only reasonable to cut down consumption when the available is no longer enough.

Nigeria strongly needs the two child policy to sustain a united Nigeria..

True.most of these workers are even performing duplicating functions,they add little or nothing to the advancement of the state.but they should mostly be senior staffs between level 14 and 17 who have less than ten years to go...it is one of the problems of crs.most states spend their budget on these staffs

One thing I have known this El-rufai for is to cause pain to people at a short notice. How can you just disengage workers like that. If it is not staff verification it is staff downsizing. So where is the due process in all this. Even if he must lay off, what arrangement has he put in place to at least cushion the effect, like paying immediately their gratuity and other benefits, or are you just realizing that your monthly allocation can not all go into recurrent expenditure. I can bet that the claim of 90 per cent of the states's revenue /allocation going into recurrent can not be true. Show us proof of this bogus assertion.
Tomorrow now, you will hear: Kaduna state is recruiting 1000 teachers. Who is fooling who?

China is no more a communist economy. Full blown capitalism..
Yes, the government has a strong influence in businesses, but it's just like what you had during the military era in Nigeria when we practiced what was called "mixed economy".
They had a population in billions and decided to follow that trend. India has billions and has never stipulated such. In the end , efficient patriotic economic management of resources and politics are the reasons why China is where they are today.
It should stun you that with almost 2 billion people, Chinese feed better, live in better cities, ride in better buses and trains and planes than Nigerians, because the state functions better. There are more unoccupied houses in china than in Nigeria.

It all boils down to educating your citizens! If 50% off the Nigerian population are seriously educated and actively operating in the national economic activities, their output could be enough to take care of the remaining 50%! Do you know this?
Check how much conglomerates like Hyundai and Samsung pay as taxes to the korean economy, vis a vis the number of people in their payroll. Same with the Toyotas and the big conglomerates in japan or Germany.

It doesn't have to be university education for all, basic skills acquisition in domant sections of the economy can be helpful. Many Nigerians are not doing anything apart from retailing chinese goods.. Many good brains are wasting away..
That's the problem.. I know of few Nigerians who were petty traders in Nigeria but who have factories in China today.. It's the mismanagement in governance that brings out all the wrongs in the big population...

Instead of growing the cake. You want to trim the number of eligible hand that want cake

But why are they recruiting almost everyday. When you go almost all the MDAs are recruiting. So who is to blame?

obailala:
Not just Kaduna state but just about all 36 states and the federal government. The civil service is overbloated with personnel who hardly do anything but just take salaries. And when a new government comes in, the only thing our leaders know how to do in the area of unemployment, is to cluelessly recruit thousands into an already redundant civil service.

Muslim muslim ticket...... I can bet with my two balls on this massive layoff, all from 23 LGAS all in southern kaduna mostly christians

Wage bills shouldn't be increasing?? Are people no longer retiring?? Are people not dying?? So why are wage bills stagnant or even increasing??

rumaabk:

Clueless leaders feel the only way to create employment is just to hire people into an already overbloated and redundant civil service.

Let us remove Bias from our analysis. What El Rufai is doing is better now than later. The civil service is over bloated and unproductive. It needs to shed weight and be leaner in structure so that the government saves more money and get more value from it
