    He said 60% of those to be employed would be teachers while the remaining 40% would be absolved into the administration pool of the civil service.

    Recall that last month the Governor had ordered for the establishment of a Public Service Institute in order to improve the capacity of the bureaucracy in the state.

    Reiterating that the recruitment of more civil servants is informed by the need to inject more staff into the system and provide employment to the youths and inject new blood into the system, Governor Tambuwal commended the new Permanent Secretaries for their services, hard work and patrotism to the state.

    Tambuwal appealed to them to sustain the hard work and commitment they are known for and called on the Head of Service to organize a retreat for them.
