Olubunmi Oni, Oyo State Head of Service, has admonished civil servants across the state to put more efforts in the discharge of their duties at their various Ministries Departments and Agencies in line with the Sustainable Development Agenda of the present administration in the state.
Oni, who stated this during a radio programme in Ibadan, charged the newly recruited staff across the state Ministries, Departments, and Agencies to do their work efficiently and dedicated to their duties, noting that the future belongs to them.
Olubunmi Oni reiterated further that civil servants across cadres in the service have benefited from different categories of training, both local and diaspora, since the inception of the current administration all in the bid to improve their efficiency at work.
She pointed out that the present administration in the State under the visionary leadership of Governor Seyi Makinde prioritized workers’ welfare ranging from payment of salaries, leave bonus, 13th Month salary, payment of pension, and gratuity to retired Civil/Public Servants which is commendable.
She opined that the civil service is the backbone of government operations and is pivotal in translating electoral mandates into tangible actions, delivering essential services and keeping public trust. The service has professionals and administrators who are responsible for implementing government policies and programmes, ensuring consistency and fairness in their application in collaboration with political appointees.
“Civil service provides continuity of government functions across political administration, and this is why they must be involved in programmes and projects from conceptualisation to completion for it to go beyond such administration”.
She advised all civil/public servants across the state to be committed to their duties and be loyal to the present administration in the state in order to bring dividends of democracy to the doorstep of the citizens of Oyo State.
