The Ekiti State University, Ado Ekiti, has sacked over 400 workers recently engaged by the institution because their recruitment did not follow due process.
The action followed a directive of the state Governor, Ayodele Fayose, who expressed reservation about the recruitment process.
The governor, who said this on Wednesday in Ado Ekiti, wondered why more than 400 persons would be offered employment without the positions being advertised.
He spoke during an interactive session with the participants in the N-Power Programme of the Federal Government from the state at the Government House, Ado Ekiti.
No fewer than 3,400 people are taking part in the programme in the state.
Participants are to take part in education, health, community and agriculture sectors for the next two years and would be paid a monthly stipend of N30,000 each.
Fayose at the event promised a reward of N1m and full employment for the best participant in the N-Power Programme.
He, however, called on the Federal Government to tackle unemployment headlong, saying the N-Power Programme was only a palliative.
“This is only a palliative as it will last for only two years and I am strongly appealing to the Federal Government to take the issue of job creation serious. When somebody partakes in this programme and is sent back to the labour market after two years, that is going back to where he or she started, the labour market.
“As for us, we will do our duty to distribute participants to where they would work and monitor them as well as ensuring that we do a proper data capturing of the participants.
“For those in the agriculture arm of the programme, they can take advantage of our desire to adequately support rice and cocoa cultivation. We will support in the provision of inputs and clearing of land. Next year, we are committing about N250m to clear farmlands across the state. From among the participants, we can get serious ones who could be useful in the teaching service and other areas,” he said.
The governor also emphasised the need to make appointment into public service free, fair and transparent.

Fayose's version of MMM

Is he sacking the full workforce of the university?

Ghandan:
i tel u.. wer will dey na wrk

u guys dont understand, they were sacked because they don't follow due process in the reqruitmen, thats why we are having wrong ppl in right places, nepotism

Eksu has staff strength of over 1500 which comprises 500 academic staff and the rest are non academic. Adding 400 persons to the payroll will be a very big problem for the institution, the academic staff are currently on strike due to non payment of salary. The best move has been taken by governor.

ok oh

psycho governer.

Fayose, jowo mase bi otito. je ebu re ooooo Awo olugbe be eeeeee.

Nice thing to do there Mr governor. They were not to work forever, let them use all their salaries they have been earning to go into biz and make ways for others.
#Jobscreation

nonsense

Why is it so difficult for our ppl to interpret simple English nt up to ten (10) sentences.

The 400 ppl were employed without the full influence of the pubic, they have never even started work before Mr. Governor reversal.

Saint fayose would have been on buhari's neck if it were the other way round

You couldn't have said it better.

fayose the president of flatinoza and the great ancestor of ojukwu odumegwu. plus v.p ffk
