Delta State Governor Senator Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa has called for support of stakeholders as his administration fishes our names of ghost and absconded civil servants in the state.
The Governor who made the call yesterday in Asaba when the executive of the Nigeria Union of Teachers, NUT, Delta State chapter led by Comrade Titus Okotie paid him a courtesy visit, stated that it was wrong for people to be receiving salaries for work not done.
Reacting to allegations by the NUT that teachers were being downgraded, Senator Okowa disclosed that it was discovered that some graduates applied for civil service jobs as clerical assistants and within less than two years of their employment, they tender their degree certificates and were recognized as such without following due process.
The Governor emphasized that his administration would employ workers, especially, teachers when the number of teachers and the need to employ have been ascertained, using the occasion to disclose that money has been released for the payment of pensioners and that will be done monthly. He congratulated the new leadership of the NUT, assuring that his administration would continue to meet with the needs of workers, especially that of teachers in the state.
