The Kogi State Staff Verification and Complaints Review Committee submitted its final Report which classified 43,522 workers as ‘Cleared’, 32,753 as ‘Uncleared’ and 8,879 as confirmed ghost workers.
The stringent application of the recommendations of the Report is expected to impact on civil servants in no small measure.
Therefore, as a demonstration of Governor Yahaya Bello’s magnanimity to workers on the ‘Uncleared’ list, this APPEALS PANEL is being inaugurated in order to provide a soft landing for some categories of persons within that classification.
The 32-member Committee comprising representation from public service, labour union, civil society organization in the State has been charged to discharge their duties with utmost sense of responsibility.
The Committee shall be headed by the Administrative Staff College of Nigeria (ASCON) and it will report directly to the Governor.
The Committee has six weeks from today to submit its report.
The governor has told the committee to ensure that no genuine worker is left uncleared.
The committee is also to attend to those whose names have been omitted from both cleared and uncleared lists.
