Governor Aminu Waziri Tambuwal of Sokoto state has directed the state civil service to recruit 1000 graduates in order to address dearth of qualified manpower in the state.
Addressing the new appointees at the council chamber of Government House, Sokoto, Governor Tambuwal instructed the Head of Service to collaborate with the state Teachers Service Board and the ministry for basic education on how to mainstream teachers into the state civil service.
He said 60% of those to be employed would be teachers while the remaining 40% would be absolved into the administration pool of the civil service.
Recall that last month the Governor had ordered for the establishment of a Public Service Institute in order to improve the capacity of the bureaucracy in the state.
Reiterating that the recruitment of more civil servants is informed by the need to inject more staff into the system and provide employment to the youths and inject new blood into the system, Governor Tambuwal commended the new Permanent Secretaries for their services, hard work and patrotism to the state.
Tambuwal appealed to them to sustain the hard work and commitment they are known for and called on the Head of Service to organize a retreat for them.
He congratulated the appointees and wished them Allah's guidance.
