Dr. Shehu Minjibir explained that the Committee exhaustively dealt with the issue and made far reaching recommendations in line with its terms of reference, and therefore, expressed the hope that the state Government will find the recommendations useful.
In his remark, the Secretary to the state Government, Dr. Baffa Bichi, while thanking members of the Committee for a thorough job, said the state Government will look into their submission with a view to doing the needful.
He assured them that government will do justice when taking decision on their recommendations. This is because “the administration of Engr. Abba Kabir Yusuf accords priority to the civil service being the engine room for Governance.”
Recall that the Screening and verification Committee was inaugurated on the 16th of August, 2023 and mandated to among others review the recruitment of 10,800 workers employed by the Ganduje’s administration.
