Mr. Governor, do you report at 7:20 a.m. every working day? Of course, your staff report later almost every single working day. But you never knew because only today you have serious engagement that made you report early enough to discover this indiscipline.You came early today because you have work to do. If you can empower your staff, they will resume even at 7:00 a.m. Here abroad where some of us reside, we Nigerians don't even go late for work because each time at work, we are well engaged, very busy. Therefore, if we go late, the situation will reveal itself. And also there are consequences for reporting late to work here. Such include termination of employment after warning.

ReplyDeleteMr. Governor Sir, I am not a civil servant so I stand to be corrected. Government offices start operating by 8:00am and close by 4:00pm except where they are exigencies of duty.
ReplyDeleteThe civil servants will be early for work if you want them to be. Having one-off reactions and fire brigade attitude to things will not help. Civil servants are very smart, they have studied and known how you operate, so don't blame them. They are only following the leader (i.e. you their Governor). There was a time in Cross River State where the Governor would pay unscheduled visits to MDAs and take decisive actions on defaulters of laid down rules. He even went round the streets of the State capital inspecting projects and even doing vox pop in disguise discreetly. I am sorry to say that your administration is the loudest and yet with nothing to show other than having cultists and other criminals having filled days in their clandestine activities. Perhaps you need to channel you effort into ensuring that the State is safe again.
Locking workers out will help, putting in place structures that ensure workers are at their duty posts as at when due is what you need to do Sir. One way is by spending more time in the State carry out snap checks and reporting to work early yourself. Lead by example!
