The Ondo state government has presented
22 buses and motorcycles to Activity Executing Agencies in its
Ministries, Departments, and Agencies through its Public Sector
Governance Reform and Development Project (OSPSGR&DP).
Some of the beneficiaries of the
facility include the Board of Internal Revenue, Public Service Training
Institute (PSTI), Civil Service Commission, Office of the
Accountant-General, Office of the Auditor-General and Procurement Price
Monitoring Unit.
Briefing newsmen on the development, the
state’s Commissioner for Information, Mr Kayode Akinmade in company
with his Budget and Planning counterpart, Mr Akin Adaramola said the
assignments of the OSPSGR&DP of building the capacity of the
workforce and provision of equipment to MDAs will enhance effective and
efficient service. ”This programme was originally coined capacity
building but was changed by the National Assembly. It was meant to train
and equip the staff towards improved performance.
“Adequate training
enhances the productivity of workers. The government felt it needed to
change the way public service was discharging its responsibilities,
hence the numerous training programmes, workshops, seminars etc being
conducted for its personnel. The vehicles are also being provided to
enable government work go smooth”, he stated.
Also commenting on the development,
Adaramola cautioned against using the vehicles for other things apart
from the purpose for which they were bought.
