The 27 new permanent Secretaries sworn in on Wednesday by Governor Bassey Otu of Cross River State have been cautioned to be dutiful and diligent or face repercussions.
Otu said his administration is dedicated to enhancing the well-being of the people of the state.
He said, “Sub-par performance may result in repercussions. I urge you to meet the high expectations set by the government and the populace.”
Otu emphasized the need for heightened efficiency and productivity in the public sector.
He expressed excitement that a good number of women made the selection.
“It is truly commendable to witness a greater representation of women in the role of Permanent Secretary today, which speaks volumes. I emphasize that this position carries significant responsibilities of fostering innovative ideas within the service.
“As both the financial overseer and administrative leader of your respective Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs), passing the buck will no longer be tolerated.
“It is imperative that you identify and eliminate any detrimental practices hindering progress. This appointment aligns with our objective of an administration centered on the welfare of the people.”
