What a man sows he shall reap.
The same man that protested with NLC in 2012, to disgrace the GEJ administration, is the same man insulting and threatening NLC.
APC and El-rufia are reaping all the evil fruit, lies and deceit they sowed 2015.

...Now pls help by using your God given brain to suggest a clear solution to the problem facing Nigeria ...and how it will be acheived without bloodshed.
Also help us by using your God given brain to remember that the North doesn't want restructuring (because the status quo favours them) and the Govs.too dont want a break out (because the status quo favours them too)...
Also remember that the govt is not very people friendly in terms of feedback when sharing your solutions .
Thanks as we await the recommendation from you ...

Nigerians want change but often are unwilling to make the sacrifices that it demands.

Every informed person understands the strategic importance of El Rufai's actions to the drive for development. The man is making the hard decisions and hopefully, it will reverberate through out the country and the federal civil service.

The civil service across the country is a canker worm that needs to be cleaned out and repositioned for effectiveness.

Until this is done, no government policy would achieve it's full mandate.

What a well structure write-up by a well paid person or someone seeking to be recognized by the Kaduna State governor/government.

I can see a favour seeker who do not think of those who have died of high blood pressure just for losing their job and source of income.

This guy is the brand new idiots and wicked soul that have emerge in Nigeria.

Tell your governor/government to cut down the benefits of politicians and stop stealing public funds to reduce cost of governance.

shawante:
you are spewing this gibberish because you were not the one being sacked. How can a governor in his right senses just wake up one morning and decide to sack a whooping 45 thousand people that doesn't solve any problem rather it compounds it because unemployment rate has definitely gotten higher which will ultimately lead to more crime

Oga, the government is broke AF,
Expect an increment in taxes,
Keep playing the dummy

galantjoe:
The fact is that Elrufai is popular oppressors of masses. From time immemorial, he always championed unpopular agenda ruthlessly. The labour union shouldn't have fought him because he is ruthless and has no regards to human right. He always won such fights. The labour union should have deployed more of negotiations than applying industrial actions. History and posterity will always remember as an oppressor of lower class.

Let's see how this will end.

NTPGARRIfactory:
Blatant balderdash! He should have reduce the cost of governance in the excess of political appointees, cut down their wages, his flamboyance lifestyle of his cronies and himself if He is truly a Tony Stark. I thought he was there to serve.

Latvin:
The writer may or may not be a paid agent but makes salient points. People who argue against right sizing are not putting alternatives on the table. The crux of the matter is the wrong approach taken by El Rufai.

First of all, he should have built a sound case for right sizing, presenting relevant data like paying 50,000-100,000 workers (2-5% of Kaduna State population) gulps 80% of revenue to the detriment of other sectors and needs of remaining 95%. He should also have presented other cost centers apart from staff salaries, including number of govt political appointees, wasteful spending in security votes, bloated estacodes, maintaining services that add no value etc.Then he would have proceeded to rallying everyone around the vision of what he aims to do, how much savings will be made, how he will use it to better the lives of citizens etc. In that discussion, the unions will be a natural front line stakeholder.

After that, he will design a transparent process and start first from pruning political appointees and cutting govt wasteful spending by say 50% for example. After demonstrating good faith elsewhere, only then can he come to workers, working with the union to agree on process of choosing those to be impacted and how much they will be paid off. Then an implementation timeline is agreed.

This is how it should have been done with citizens massively supporting a rather painful set of steps. This is how most private sector organisations do it. You will not find a serious organisation that doesn't right size from time to time, why do we expect something different with the public sector? Until we start approaching issues in this country with a business mindset, we will keep scratching the surface of our mess. If we in this generation can genuinely sacrifice to make future generations better, then we would have done a good thing but many are more interested in themselves and the now.

Friend22:
Stop being an idiot!..
Your saw the name of the writer and you chose to ignore it like idiots like you normally do.

I was initially against his decision of rightsizing the civtke service,now I can see what he meanr,though people should be provided with suitable alternatives.

iboboyswag:
With an increase, we still pay one of the lowest in Africa. Nigeria as a country is under taxed. But we are not yet ready for that conversation.

Nigeria needs to move forward from this hand to mouth approach.

Try this method in your family and watch how poverty plays ping pong with your destinies.
Our cost of governance is very high. Granted there are lots of other issues but many solutions would not see the light of day if we don't do this.

No government the world over operates like this. As we lean up the civil service, so would the same cascade to all part of government.

sapientia:
Hahahahaha

First was premium Times

All this PR to bury his evils

The paid writer subtly said it's redundant workers and political appointees

What modality is used to measure it?

When did sacking political appointees start to be an issue?

Is there any law that empowers governors to sack redundant workers? Nope

Never knew politicsNigeria is also a government PR wing

Very shameful
