The governor who had been waging war against corrupt civil servants, including persons undergoing trial for N6bn wage bill scam, was said to have sent a bill aimed at cleaning the rot in the civil service to the state House of Assembly.
Dickson confirmed the development in Yenagoa during his monthly media chat. He said the bill was initiated by his administration to check fraud, which, he said, had hindered the development of the state.
According to him, the bill will strengthen the provisions of the Criminal Code and lead to quick dispensation of cases relating to fraud when it becomes law.
He said, "The bill to the House of Assembly is to criminalised sharp practices. While we are doing well to stabilise the state, we believe the state should be regularised by law. If the bill against wage fraud is passed, those indicted will serve 10 years imprisonment. "
He called on workers involved in sharp practices, especially the inflation of salaries and emoluments of civil servants, to desist from the act. He warned that there would be no sacred cows. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
