1,400 Zamfara Civil Servants Lament Non-Payment Of Salaries For Five Years - Edoman - 05-17-2019 1,400 Zamfara Civil Servants Lament Non-Payment Of Salaries For Five Years By Ifeanyi Chukwu Nwannah - May 17, 2019 https://www.independent.ng/1400-zamfara-civil-servants-lament-non-payment-of-salaries-for-five-years/#respond [/url] [url=https://www.independent.ng/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Zamfara-governor-Abdulaziz-Yari.jpg]Abdul Aziz Yari GUSAU – No fewer than 1,400 graduates recruited by the government of Abdulaziz Yari, the Zamfara State governor, in April 2014 have continued to lament that after five years, they have not been paid any salary and allowances, nor promoted and confirmed. Addressing newsmen in Gusau, the state capital, Comrade Lukman Majidadi, chairman of the group, popularly known as the 1,400 Civil Servants Forum, said they did not beg the government to employ them, stressing that the governor gave official directives to the State Civil Service Commission to employ graduates into the state’s civil service, which the commission under Alhaji Ahmad Zabarma, obliged. He maintained that 9,000 applicants went into the contest of which only 1,400 graduates were successful after the screening. He said that the 1,400 graduates were issued with notification of appointment to various MDAs and posted to various departments in the state. Majidadi said that since 2014, they were recruited, there was no single incentive from the government, nor salaries or allowances, even as there was no confirmation letters. “It is now 60 months, about five years, yet the state government has refused to fulfill its own part of the bargain.the government has not paid us, neither did it tell us to stop coming to work as ghost workers.
