Nigeria’s civil service most educated in Africa, says Osinbajo

Acting President Yemi Osinbajo says Nigeria’s civil service is not only the greatest in Africa but also the most educated on the continent.

Osinbajo said this in Abuja on Wednesday during an interactive session with public and civil servants on effective implementation of the recently signed executive orders.

He said there is a need for the workers to always work hard towards sustaining the nation’s economy.

While urging them to remain committed to their work, the acting president said that nations around the world are made great through the hard work of their citizens.

He also told the workers to ensure that they minimise postponement of matters that could be handled immediately “as this could have a direct and indirect effect on the masses”.

“It is important we understand that great nations and economies around the world are created by men and women not spirits,” he said.

“It is the hard work of men and women all over the world that make nations great. And Nigeria’s civil service is not just the greatest but the most educated in Africa.”

Osinbajo also said that the federal government “understands how important it is” to pay workers their salaries and as such, will ensure workers are adequately paid.

“The president has been a salary earner all his life so he understands very well how important it is to pay salaries and will always see to that,” he said.
