Adamawa Gov’t Issues Deadline for Presentation of CertificatesGovernor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri of Adamawa State has issued a directive requiring all workers in government institutions, ministries, boards, and agencies to immediately present their certificates.
According to the Governor, the move was aimed to restore order and prevent unqualified individuals from occupying positions, thereby denying opportunities to the younger generation.
The Governor emphasized that the exercise is not intended to witch-hunt anyone but rather to ensure sanity in the system.
Governor Fintiri, in a statement signed by his chief press secretary Humwashi Wonosikou,
warned that failure to comply will result in the forfeiture of October salaries until the certificates are submitted.
However, the Governor has assured that no one will be denied their salary if they present their certificates before the end of October.
The Governor’s directive is driven by concerns that some individuals are taking advantage of system failures to engage in wrongdoing, stressing that these issues must be addressed, and the service should be a haven for scholarship and honesty, rather than a haven for misfits.
