Efficient civil service ensures high productivity for govts, says Amosun

Amosun Aworis

Ogun State Governor Ibikunle Amosun yesterday said and efficient civil service is a vital factor to the productivity of any state or Federal government.
The governor noted that the high performance of a state is a reflection of the kind of civil or public service it has, as well as the people in it and the kind of support they give.
Amosun spoke at the send-forth ceremony for the retiring Head of Service (HoS), Mr. Abayomi Sobande, and 14 permanent secretaries in Abeokuta, the state capital.
The governor, who hailed them for their service to the state, having put 35 years into the public service or reached the mandatory retirement age of 60 years, said they had laid a solid foundation on which subsequent governments would continue to build.
Extolling the virtues of the HoS, Amosun said Sobande almost missed being made the HoS as security report and internal sources depicted him as a “nonconformist” due to his non-compromising disposition.
The governor added that he had no regret having Sobande as HoS.
He said: “Some of the attributes that people said he possessed almost made him to miss being appointed as of the time we were looking for a Head of Service.
“When we consulted and asked that people should write reviews for Head of Service hopefuls, the reviews they sent were not the qualities I had thought I wanted.
