A statement by the governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Yinka Oyebode, reads: “The government’s attention has been drawn to reports that it plans to sack workers in the MDAs. The misleading reports, which quoted an anonymous source in the office of the Head of Service, is a tissue of lies and a figment of the writer’s imagination.
“The Office of the Head of Service has no plans to disengage workers in the listed MDAs as claimed in the malicious reports. The Head of Service, Mr. Ayodeji Ajayi, is authorised to speak on issues relating to the service and not the rumour mill.
“Contrary to the concocted lies, the government wishes to place it on record that it has no plan to sack anyone in the MDAs. Instead, it is about concluding the process of employing about 3,000 workers in the teaching and civil service.
“The recruitment process, which was well advertised, began in September 2019 and has reached the final stage, as about 98 per cent of the applicants who passed the examinations have gone through interview sessions preparatory to the issuance of their employment letters as teachers in the public primary and secondary schools, and in the civil service…”
The clarification followed a protest by the organised labour against alleged plans by the government to sack workers.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the government recently sacked 1,000 workers of Ekiti State University (EKSU) and another 200 at the Ekiti State University Teaching Hospital (EKSUTH). They got their sack letters few days to Christmas, the report claimed.
