Kwara Governor AbdulRaman Abdulrazaq has approved the reduction of workdays from five to three days per week for the State civil servants.
The measure is a temporary palliative to bring some ease to workers following the removal of petrol subsidy by the Federal Government.
Kwara Head of Service, Mrs Susan Modupe Oluwole conveyed the Governor’s directive to the state workers.
Mrs Oluwole directed all Heads of Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) in the State to immediately work out a format indicating the alternating work days for each worker under them.
She warned the workers not to abuse the magnanimity of the Governor, stressing that the regular monitoring of MDAs by her office would be intensified to ensure strict compliance.
