From Adanna Nnamani, Abuja

Minister of State for Labour and  Employment, Festus Keyamo has warned it would not be business as usual for unproductive civil servants vowing that those found to be incompetent would be sanctioned.

Keyamo stated this, yesterday, at the occasion of the Ministerial Service Award for the Labour Sector where 15 staff were rewarded with cash prizes and awards for excellent performance. 

The minister said It was heart-warming that the ministry was recognising the outstanding performance of officers who have tirelessly worked to help it achieve its mandate in the course of the year.

“This is an opportunity to inform you all that enhanced performance for productivity must be encouraged and so this platform is to celebrate and recognise excellence in service delivery by some carefully selected officers of the ministry. With the performance management process in place, it will not be business as usual for unproductive civil servants. There are sanctions for incompetence.”

Keyamo said the ministry would provide the enabling environment for competitive performance in rendering quality services. He said staff aspiring to put in their best in the discharge of their duties would be encouraged.
