The Secretary to the Oyo state Government Alhaji Olalekan Alli while briefing journalists at press confrence held at Minsitry of information conference hall on today said that letters of redeployment are already dispatched accordingly and the affected people are therefore expected to resume at their new places of work with immediate effect.
He ephasized that ” NONE of these workers is being sacked, disengaged or released from the services of Oyo State. On the contrary, they are only being redeployed to new offices and establishments where the government believes they will add greater value to its service deliver mandate.”
” Their postings and redeployments are therefore in accordance to the Service provisions. Government wishes them to report in their new offices with the required vigor and enthusiasm worthy of their employment and respective status. ”
The SSG said further that the proposed massive transformation of BCOS will exponentially expand the innate capacities and dormant resources of BCOS into a diversified public corporation capable of sustaining its operations and growth from its own internally generated revenues.
” This will not only free critical financial, material and human resources to the State Government but should soon serve as a veritable source of funds to be deployed to other areas of public service delivery”.
“At the conclusion of the ongoing restructuring, we intend that BCOS will become a national model of a successful and sustainably profitable public corporation whose example will be gleefully copied across Nigeria.”
