The RIVERS State Governor, Chief Nyesom
Wike, has directed permanent secretaries in the
state to produce account details of their
ministries’ expenditure over the last 18 months.
Wike also advised the permanent secretaries to
shun partisan politics as career civil servants,
adding that the role some of them played in the
closing days of the immediate past
administration was politically-motivated.
The governor, who addressed the permanent
secretaries during a meeting at the Government
House, Port Harcourt on Tuesday, expressed
regret that some of them helped the immediate
past administration to illegally withdraw funds
from government coffers up to May 28, 2015.
“I want full details and printout of every
ministry’s account in the last 18 months. I will
not accept any handover note without an
accompanying account details.
“The government was coming to a close and
some of you were busy signing cheques on
26th, 27th and 28th of May. On May 28, the
Transition Committee called most of you and
you refused to cooperate because they told you
I would not be sworn in,” Wike told the
permanent secretaries.
The governor, who promised that he would not
embark on a witch-hunt of any civil servant
irrespective of his role during the electioneering
period, maintained that no civil servant would be
allowed to sabotage the efforts of his
administration.
He, however, urged the permanent secretaries
to work with his administration to revive the
state and put back smiles on the faces of the
people.
The governor added that all backdated
employments and indiscriminate issuance of
certificates of occupancy by the immediate
past administration would be re-visited.
Wike specifically directed the Permanent
Secretary in the Ministry of Lands and Survey to
produce relevant land documents for
examination.
The permanent secretaries were led to the
meeting by the Head of Service, Mr. Samuel
Longjohn.
