Jigawa State Governor, Mallam Umar Namadi, on Thursday warned his cabinet members to tender their resignation letters if they are not ready to work as a team to ensure the success of the government.
The governor emphasised the importance of mentoring and synergy among commissioners, special advisers, technical advisers, permanent secretaries, and directors, which he believes is the engine room of success.
Speaking at a two-day retreat for state executives and other political appointees, Governor Namadi stressed that collaboration is crucial for achieving meaningful development in Jigawa State.
In a statement signed by Hajiya Zainab Ringim, Senior Special Assistant on Media Affairs, Governor Namadi explained that his administration is centred around the 12-point agenda to make Jigawa great.
He made it clear that any commissioner unwilling to work in synergy with special advisers and technical assistants must resign.
The Senior Special Assistant on Media Affairs stated that this move is seen as a bold step towards ensuring that only those committed to teamwork and the state’s development agenda remain in office.
In addition, Governor Namadi called on permanent secretaries to adhere strictly to civil service rules and regulations, emphasising the need to eliminate corruption from the service.
He also advised permanent secretaries to mentor their directors and assistant directors, fostering a culture of guidance and support within the state’s bureaucracy.
Hajiya Ringim noted that the governor’s emphasis on synergy and teamwork was echoed by Professor Murtala Sabo Sagagi, Director at the Central Bank, who presented a paper titled “Aligning Leadership with Jigawa’s 12-Point Agenda” at the retreat.
Professor Sagagi stressed the importance of teamwork in achieving the Jigawa 12-point agenda, highlighting the need for collective effort and collaboration.
He noted: “Governor Namadi’s commitment to transparency and accountability was evident throughout the retreat, as he encouraged open discussion and feedback from participants.”
Professor Sagagi added: “The governor’s willingness to listen and adapt is seen as a positive step towards building a more effective and responsive government.”
Zainab Ringim disclosed that the retreat, which brought together top officials from various state ministries and agencies, provided a platform for stakeholders to share ideas and experiences.
