Wole Balogun, Ado Ekiti
Ekiti State Governor, Kayode Fayemi, has reiterated his commitment to rescuing the civil service from the level of decadence experienced under the immediate past administration.
Fayemi lamented that public servants, during the last administration, were demoralised and deprived of service tools for effective performance.
He said the core values of civil service went to extinction in recent past years, with deprivation of a conducive and work-friendly environment.
Fayemi said this, yesterday, when he unveiled the special edition of Fountain Bureaucrat Magazine, at the Conference Hall, Governor’s Office, in Ado Ekiti. He said civil servants were not only deprived of deserved welfare packages, but were made to suffer indignity and ridicule of high magnitude. The governor, represented, by his deputy, Bisi Egbeyemi, was of the opinion that the public service, being an engine room of governance, deserves to be treated with much dignity and respect.
Fayemi said: “We are all living witness to the level of decadence that the service sunk during the recent inglorious past. An average civil servant was demoralised and disoriented with the inclement and unfair environment of operation.
“Civil servants were not only denied of deserved welfare packages, they were arrogantly deprived of tools of service.”
