PARTICIPATE IN GOVERNANCE -- GOVERNOR UMAHI TASKS STAs; TAs

-

Ebonyi State Governor David Umahi has charged Senior Technical
Assistants and Technical Assistants  to participate fully in governance.

Umahi gave the  advice during an end  of the year dinner  he organised for
them  at International Conference Center in Abakaliki in Monday.

Umahi, who was full of gratitude  to some STAs and TAs    assigned to monitor the cleanliness of Abakaliki ,however ,expressed  dissatisfaction with some STAs and TAs that had not    integrated themselves  into the vision and mission of his government.

He said,  " A lot of  you are not participating in any government activities.
Like,those in agriculture, they  are not participating and that is very
dangerous.  if   you are  just earning the  allowances we pay to you, then it is of no use; our mission is not fulfilled."

The governor  called on all the appointees, particularly those assigned to the 
agricultural sector to fully participate in the agricultural policies
of his government, including   dry  season farming.

A statement by the governor’s spokesman, Emma Anya,  quoted Umahi as having   told the  aides  to think of the future since  a time might come when no fund would be getting to states from the Federation Account.

Umahi said  one of the surest ways to be dependent especially in such time was for the states to fall back to agriculture.  
"A time will come when there  will be no money to share from the Federation
Account. There is no EXCO member that doesn't have a farm .Even House
of Assembly members  have farms. So, if there is no money from the Federation
Account,we will be able to beat our chest and say ‘We   have our  farms.’

 

Commending  Ebonyians participating In Agriculture,  the governor  warned that he would not tolerate any of his aides who did not key into the agricultural policies of his administration.     

Umahi also announced a new package of vocational training for STAs and
TAs  who   without handiwork beginning from next year.

He explained that after the training, N300,000  each would be  given  to  them to 
inject into any business of  their choice.
 

Umahi also charged STAs and TAs on security to ensure that there is no
case of kidnapping and armed robbery in the  yuletide season.
