Mr. Salam said 91% of eligible voters have collected their Voters Cards, Stakeholders forum will be held very soon and there is plan for succession plans and capacity building for all members of staff.
Dr. Agboke, in his remarks said he came to Osun State to put every worker in the ministry on their toes. He told the gathering that he is still agile and will be moving from one department to the other to checkmate indolent staff.
The former Oyo State REC whose tenure was renewed said he will not tolerate any staff coming late to the office.
Agboke said,
“working with me requires being smart, agile and ready to work at all time, there’s no room for indiscipline or dullness. Electoral officers who have traveled abroad or are absent from work, will have to resign, so we can give the job to those who are willing to do it right and diligently”.
“People enjoy good salary but are not responsible at their various desks, so for us in INEC, INEC is known for serious business ,you must be very responsible”
He implores staff to ensure that they step up their consciousness for being responsible, he said,
“being responsible is very important because we are moving towards the 2023 elections, if you’re lackadaisical now ,what attitude are you going to carry into the election period?”.
“INEC is a very special organisation, because of the nature of the job that we do, our staff cannot afford not to be up and doing ,we expect them to do more and we hope that before the general elections they will be better”, he concluded.
