The mayor assured the workers of his administration’s commitment to improving working conditions and maintaining a cordial relationship with the workforce.
He urged them to resume work early, observe official working hours and take their responsibilities seriously.
Igbem also announced plans to conduct unscheduled visits to various departments to monitor attendance, assess staff commitment and ensure compliance with official working hours.
He warned that workers found neglecting their duties would be identified and held accountable.
The mayor called on the workers to support his administration’s vision of a productive, accountable and people oriented local government.
In response, the workers pledged their support for the administration’s objectives, including its vision of a greater, greener and more liveable Oyi.
