Governor to workers: Present certificate or forfeit October salary

Adamawa State Governor Ahmadu Fintiri has directed all civil servants to immediately present their educational certificates and other documents before the payment of their salaries in October.

The governor gave the order in a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Humwashi Wonosikou, on Thursday, October 3, 2024.

Fintiri warned that failure to comply would result in the forfeiture of October salaries until the certificates were submitted.

According to him, this move aims to restore order and prevent unqualified individuals from occupying positions, thereby denying opportunities to the younger generation.

He noted: “This exercise is not intended to witch-hunt anyone but rather to ensure sanity in the system.

“No one will be denied their salary if they present their certificates before the end of October.”

The governor stated that the directive was driven by concerns that some individuals were taking advantage of system failures to engage in wrongdoing.

“These issues must be addressed, and the service should be a haven for scholarship and honesty, rather than a haven for misfits,” Fintiri added.
