BREAKING NEWS

The Kogi State Governor has cancelled the first batch report of the screening committee for lack of due process, replaced the Chairman of Screening Committee. While the screening committee continue her assignment, the Chairman of the committee has also been replaced by the Governor to complete the assignment with the existing term of reference any moment from now. Following the replacement of Chairman of Screening Committee, the people's Governor has reaffirmed and assured the Labour Union that no genuine worker will be sacked by his administration. The screening committee must follow due process to ensure quick lasting solution to salary problem. The Kogi State Civil Servants have suffered for too long and the workers needs little patience for judicious disbursement of bailout funds.

OP, this your title na wa o.

Methinks labour has just deceived the governor so that corruption as usual can continue. All the ghost workers screened out will now be included and the governor will now understand that work done is zero.
The governor should have known that Kogi civil servants thrive on corruption, one man having up to 27 bank accounts which he uses to siphon govt money. Kogi and ghost workers are twins!
Governor Bello has made the biggest mistake in wiping out ghost workers from Kogi state pay roll by removing Okuntimo. It is now business as usual again for the corrupt civil servants. I tell you, the ghost workers in the next pay roll will shock Bello.

You are hailing the corrupt labour in Kogi state. When the civil servants were owed 5 months salary,, did labour go on strike in Kogi? No! It is unfortunate that most people still do not know that the leaders of NLC fights only for their pockets and interest.

@jamace definitely u haven't been following the screening issue. the man has really made a mess if the screening.

I have been following it fully.
The workers and labour have been grumbling first about the governor for setting up the screening committee and secondly, they have been grumbling that why should the governor use a retired military man, who killed people in Odi.
Frankly, the governor has played into their hand hence the screening will flop!

Being an ex-miltary man is not an issue but what are his qualifications as to being made the head of the screening committee? And also the SA on security at the same time. Check out the spate of kidnappings and robbery in Kogi of recent. He should put his energy where he has the expertise. And even the security matter I doubt his credentials cos he doesn't have a good military record. he was even accused of collecting money from people to screen them at the local governments.

Leave qualifications out of this. From what I know, an average military officer has more exposure and leadership qualities than a university professor.
What is happening in the screening exercise is that the man does not want to compromise with the crooks who thrive on ghost workers salary. Tell me, is it right for a worker who work full time to be denied full salary because of many ghost workers on the pay roll?
I am quite sure that even the chairman of labour was involved in the ghost salary scam.
Any way, I pity Bello for allowing himself to be deceived by the very corrupt labour association. Time will tell.
