Umar Namadi, governor of Jigawa state, carried out a surprise inspection of the state secretariat on Monday.

He would discover that several offices of top government officials were still locked at 11am, with many senior civil servants absent during the period.

In a viral video, the governor was seen scurrying between ministries, finding many offices deserted, with only a sprinkling of messengers and security personnel at their posts.

Garba Muhammad, special assistant to the governor, confirmed the inspection in a statement issued on Tuesday, describing it as part of Namadi’s broader statewide oversight activities.
According to Muhammad, the visit to the secretariat formed part of the governor’s “comprehensive statewide tour that combined administrative oversight, humanitarian engagements, and infrastructure inspection, reinforcing his hands-on approach to governance”.

“The day’s activities commenced with an unannounced visit to the Jigawa State Secretariat Complex in Dutse, where the Governor monitored staff attendance, punctuality, and workplace productivity,” the statement reads.

“The exercise reflects his administration’s continued drive to promote discipline, accountability, and an efficient public service.

“The Governor subsequently travelled to Ringim Local Government Area to commiserate with families affected by the devastating boat accident at Malamawar ‘Yan Dutse community.

“He participated in the funeral prayers for the victims whose bodies had been recovered, while search operations continued for those still missing.

“Governor Namadi also paid a condolence visit to the Emir of Ringim, praying for Allah’s mercy upon the deceased and strength for the bereaved families.”

From Ringim, Namadi visited Sankara to inspect the ongoing township road network and Kanya Babba road projects before proceeding to Kazaure, where he assessed progress on key infrastructure projects, including hospitals, Jigawa State Research Institute and the Jigawa State Polytechnic for Communication and Information Technology.

Muhammad said the tour “demonstrated Governor Namadi’s commitment to maintaining close supervision of government programmes, improving public service delivery, and accelerating the implementation of developmental projects that advance the vision of a Greater Jigawa”.

It goes a long way to show so many thigns and not just revealing the absentee workers. It shows that the governor does not even trust sending a deleate to handle such supervision, because the governor knows that if such gives such responsibility to someone else, it will be leaked out, secondly, the delegate will take bribe, and the real information and purpose of the assignment will be defited.

Nigeria is almost doomed

Wow. Nigeria for you. They will resurface on pay day. Even collect ghost salaries join their own.

Election time don dey near..
The Governor come dey show working when him self be permanent landlord for Abuja

Jigawa only got some governance during Sule Lamido era.

Northern Governors and accountability no dey the same sentence

Highest corruption to exit in d world



Founded in







Civil servants, civil servants.

The govano met ghost workers.
It's normal in Nigeria.
Not all on payroll are actually workers.

Welcome to Nigeria where the People blame their Leaders but they themselves are the Problem.

May God deliver this Nation.

And after noticing the empty offices, what did he do or has done to the erring officers?
Or it's business as usual

Na normal thing for Nigerians.

The rot is down to the grass root.

The reason you still see paupers who haven't eaten a good meal for days,

Still screaming emilokan...

Next time it's exist sir, not exit

Good, I hope he takes decisive action and rid his cabinet off inactive and lazy people. Every governor should emulate this. And even the president should move around the country to monitor this governors and make sure the state allocations are properly utilized. I trust Obi if na that wan sha. You must seat up.

Normal day in our obodo 9ja

In the north?? nothing will still happen to them .
Once they go mosque everything will be settled on Friday.
Besides nothing is really happening in those state except farming and banditry

Ghost workers are more prevalent in the North

What does he expect. The salary he pays is not enough to cover everyday transportation to office now.

They learnt it from him nah.

This one de chase clout.

98% of civil servants are there because a politician brought them.

What that means is that they are also politicians, either overtly or covertly. So they are there to further the agenda of the person who put them there. The governor knows this and there's nothing much he can do cos these same guys are the ones that will campaign for him

If real reform must happen in Nigeria, dismantle the civil service at all levels of government

Nigeria is a joke.....Watch some of them come and blame poor pay as the reason for not coming to the office early and daily. The same civil servants are the most corrupt people in government. They will sabotage the will of the people just for their personal gain yet cry about poor pay.

That is why Nigeria will never move forward. Both the politicians and the civil service are corrupt

This one wan corrupt pass their governor

Yankiss:

Bros calm down.

How much is minimum wage? How much is transportation? How much is your lunch and breakfast? How much is medical for a family of 3? What has the governor done to ensure that the workers are active and engaged? How many of those workers benefit from training and other work benefits apart from OGA DIRECTOR? Then you expect to see an office full of people? All these considerations are for Normal Nigerians who actually desire to work oh.

Now let's take note that this is the deep north where many of these workers just happened to appear on the payroll due to political SETTLEMENT? Many of them no get qualifications. Just the way you see 10 year olds voting in the north, this is the job that was used to SETTLE them and you expect to see anybody?

Okay let's test something, I dare the governor to sack the absentees. Shey na for Jigawa. Make he try am.

Forget say na North oh.

Generally work morale is very low for government workers.

Imagine minimum wage that was increased years ago is still left on paper and not reflecting in workers accounts. Everybody don face where belle face jeje

Nationwide, both at state and federal levels, this is how civil servants are. I have a friend who is a federal civil servant but I never knew. He hasn't gone to work in several months. It was last week that he called me that the promotion he paid for at work was approved. That's when I knew he was a civil servant.

I was in shock! You don't go to work and yet you get promoted after paying money? Civil servants are the most fundamentally useless set of people in this country and I say this without reservation. I go to government ninistries a lot. All they do is sleep, eat, lash each others wives and desperately look for bribes as they frustrate every government policy.

Anyways, if I be one of the workers wey governor just enter him office I go talk say my money loss as him enter. After all, I no dey office and governor carry himself enter. So who thief am?

Even the governor himself lives in Abuja and not in his state

You can never understand this country

What do u expect. U that is checking the offices, how did you get into power lol

Government workers are ghost workers.

Eye service.

Is he surprised? Which state civil servant goes to work before noon or closes after 3pm?

Oga governor please calm down na raining season we dey Oga pipu don go farm to work since na only side hustling fit support family life now.

That’s why we have institutions and leaders. Leaders are to drive and enforce change. Normally, as a leader if you are overwhelmed or can’t get results , you honourably resign. These leaders are paid to work…
