By Joyce Onuora, Abakaliki
Ebonyi State Governor Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru has approved to give N100,000 Christmas bonus for all the civil servants in the State.
Governor Nwifuru disclosed this on Thursday, while addressing the stakeholders and elders of the state during the flag-off of the pet project of the wife of the President, Oluremi Tinubu, with the theme “Better Days Ahead, that held at the ecumenical centre in Abakaliki.
Nwifuru said that the state civil servants would be upgraded to meet up with other States for the benefits of the still growing State.
” I emphasized that the resources of the state belongs to the people and as a result, they won’t be allowed to continue to suffer in poverty.
“I have decided to take a good step, it is hard but we must do it. The workers of this state must live like others in this Christmas period. In this season you need to bless your neighbor, you need to be a blessing to your home.
“And as a leader of the state, it is necessary to be a blessing in the homes of everyone in this state. I cannot say that I’m doing this because it is not my personal money, it is the money of the state that I am using, which I was elected to manage.
“And I have resolved with the caucus and principal officers of government, since I came in, that workers in Ebonyi State should have something to celebrate.
Governor Nwifuru also assured that he is going to have meeting with local government chairmen, and every worker in this state because they must get N100,000 and a bag of rice for Christmas gift.
