The Governor of Bayelsa State, Mr. Seriake
Dickson, has expressed dismay over what he
described as the poor representation of the state
in all cadres of the federal civil service.
He called on the Federal Government to reverse
the “unfair and inequitable” trend, a statement
on Saturday by his Chief Press Secretary, Daniel
Iworiso-Markson, said.
The governor was quoted as expressing his
concern during a courtesy call on him by the
Head of Civil Service of the Federation, Mrs.
Winifred Oyo-Ita, at the Government House,
Yenagoa.
Dickson also challenged the President
Muhammadu Buhari-led administration to
intensify efforts on the completion of the ongoing
federal secretariat project in the state.
According to him, available employment statistics
reveal that Bayelsa ranks among few states that
are poorly represented in all cadres of the Federal
Civil Service.
He added that Bayelsa State does not have any
federal permanent secretary.
The governor said, “We will like you to give us
listening ears as we make the case for a fair and
equitable representation in all cadres of the public
service of the federation. A case in point is the
absence of a permanent secretary from Bayelsa
State in the Federal Civil Service.
“As you are more aware than I am, since the
retirement of Amb. Godknows Igali, our state is
now one of the few states that does not have
representation at that level. I don’t believe it is
deliberate.
“But, I will like to call your attention to that,
because you are also a member of the Federal
Executive Council.”
The governor said the state government was
ready to partner with the office of the HoS in
driving his administration’s policies on the welfare
of public servants, particularly in the areas of
