Kogi House of Assembly ordered the executive to furnish the house with a comprehensive report “”within 24 hours”



   The Kogi House of Assembly has unanimously condemned the report of the State Staff Audit Committee and ordered the executive to furnish the house with a comprehensive report “”within 24 hours”.


   The resolution followed the adoption of a motion of urgent public importance, raised by Friday Sani (PDP-Igalamel-Odolu), in which he decried the declaration of a chunk of the civil workforce as “uncleared and therefore, ghosts”.

  In the motion, which he tagged: “Save the Souls of Kogi Workers”, the lawmaker said that there was an urgent need to save the souls of civil servants at both the state and local government levels.

  Ruling on the motion, the Speaker, Umar Imam, described the idea behind the screening exercise as a lofty one, but regretted that its execution was substandard.

 The Speaker ordered the committee to bring a complete report of its activities to the house within 24 hours, and directed the joint committee on establishment, judiciary, pension and local government, to study the said report and revert to the house within one week.
