The Chairman of the Action Democratic Party (ADP) in Plateau
State, Chief Ambassador Nanyah Andrew Daman, has condemned in strong terms the
purported suspension and victimization of Local Government Council Directors of
Personnel Management (DPM) and Directors of Finance and Cashiers (DFS) of the
17 Local Government Councils of Plateau State .
The ADP Chairman made the statemet in the party secretariat
in Jos recently over the news going round that the Lalong Administration
through the office of the Permanent Secretary Local Government Service
commission in collaboration with the Ministry for Local Government and
Chieftancy affairs has suspended the Local Government Staff for working for the
PDP in the 2015 general elections and for quarries that have to do with payment
to political leaders of the Living Administration who visited the 17 Local Government
in the last 1 and the half years.
The ADP condemns the injustice done to the DPMs, DFS and
Cashiers where they are paying for the sins of the APC leadership who collected
various sums of welfare packages on tour in the 17 LGCs tour and payments to House
of Assembly, Chiefs, Local Government Chairmen, Government House Officials and
National Officials on special assignments or duties.
Why should the Lalong Government quarry the LGC staff for
obeying directives and approvals given by constituted authority?. How does the
Living administration expect the local government staffers to ignore their
statutory responsibilities? Is it fair that the TIC Chairman of Mikang LGC to
threaten and sack his Cashier for obeying financial regulation? How wise is it
for the Lalong administration who claims to be brought in by civil servants to
turn around to victimize the same workers, particularly widows?
The ADP on the Plateau calls on Governor Lalong not to
increase the over 5 million unemployed Nigerians by sacking the Local
Government Staff to avoid litigation and unnecessary waste tax payers money.
