Governor Abba Yusuf of Kano State has directed 4,000 civil servants in the state to procede on statutory retirement in line with the laid down rules.

The affected civil servants are the beneficiary of service extension policy introduced by the immediate past governor of the state, Alhaji Abdullahi Ganduje.

Upon assuming office on May 29, 2023, Governor Abba Yusuf abolished the pension law that allowed for tenure elongation and directed that service years revert to the standard 35 years or 60 years of age.

The state Head of Service, Abdullahi Musa, told newsmen on Wednesday that the decision to retire the workers was due to the abrogation of the pension law.

Musa said a Senior Civil Servants Committee was established to determine the actual number of affected individuals.

“Our committee, after thorough investigation, found that about 4,000 individuals are affected and are expected to retire by December 1, 2024.

“This means that by the end of this September, they will need to submit their retirement notices,” he said.

Musa added that the government had made preparations to address the vacancies that will be created by the retirement of these senior officers.

“Don’t forget that at the end of former Governor Ganduje’s administration, he employed 13,000 civil servants.

“When this government came into power, Governor Yusuf chose not to sack them.

“Instead, we screened the 13,000 civil servants, fully engaging 10,000 on a permanent and pensionable basis, while the remaining 3,000 were dismissed.

“Among those dismissed were National Youth Service Corps members, undergraduates still in school, those underage (13 years and below), and those overage,” Musa explained.

The directive to the workers to retire followed the completion of an investigation, screening, and data assessment of the affected civil servants.      (vitalnewsngr.com)
