The Bayelsa State Governor, Henry Seriake Dickson has
described the recent list of looters by the All Progress Congress (APC) ruling party,
as childish, reports ITRealms.
The Governor made this known on Wednesday, also reiterated
his belief in the existence of two dominant parties in the country.
He regretted that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC)
is grossly fragmented, a development he noted has made the party disorganized.
Also, he reasoned that the cluelessness and insensitivity of
the APC has left the country divided more than ever before and called on
President Muhammadu Buhari to urgently unite Nigeria.
Meanwhile, the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr.
Francis Ottah Agbo, quoted the governor as saying that current reform in the
state was not aimed at witch-hunting any worker but to rid the service of all forms
of irregularities, sharp practices with the view to repositioning the service
to stand the test of time.
‘‘The mind-set that you can keep your name on the pay roll
without coming to work is negative and we have to draw the red line now because
we want to leave behind a reformed, repositioned, motivated and efficient work
force that can stand the test of time…’’
The Governor who cited the case of 1,090 staff with teaching
qualification redundant at the local government councils stressed that they
would be redeployed to schools after going through refresher courses.
