Ebonyi State Governor, Francis Nwifuru
By CHRISTIAN OGBONNA
Ebonyi has constituted a Local Government Staff Verification Committee to screen and identify genuine employees.
The screening will start from June 15 and end on June 30 for all local government employees.
Workers are expected to produce relevant credentials, birth certificates and letters of first appointment. They are also expected to produce valid means of identification.
Only employees cleared by the verification committee will be paid salaries, henceforth.
Heads of personnel management and treasury are expected to lead staff of their respective local government councils to the verification.
In the case of junior secondary schools, employees would be led by junior principals.
Government appointed Mrs. Catherine Ogbu, wife of ex-deputy governor of the state, Prof. Chigozie Ogbu as chairperson of the committee.
Members of the committee are Mr. Humphrey Nwobashi, Prof. Adeline Idike, Secretary, Nigeria Union of Teachers, Head of the Civil Service and the Special Assistant to the governor on Primary Education.
Dr. Monday Uzor, spokesman of Gov. Francis Nwifuru, made these known on Sunday in Abakaliki. (NAN)
