The Central Bank governor on Monday called for the sack of 50% of civil servants in Nigeria because according to him, 'the country
spends 70 per cent of its earnings on salaries and entitlements of civil
servants.'
“You have to fire half of the civil service because
the revenue of the government is supposed to be for 167 million
Nigerians. Any society where government spends 70 per cent of its
revenue on its civil service has a problem. It is unsustainable,” he
said.
Organized Labour, including the Nigeria Labour Congress, Trade Union Congress, Association of Senior Civil Servants of
Nigeria, the Civil Liberties Organisation and Radio, Television, Theatre
and Arts Workers Union, have all condemned his statement, some asking for his immediate sack.

Abi, they should start by using his as an example. Sack Sanusi and put that his salary money to use elsewhere....he obviously talking through his ass .
It's so necessary.. CUT THE BLOATED MESS IN HALF. Scrap NYSC, that's a good load of rubbish taken care of. Enact a massive witch hunt for ghost workers, another load of rubbish and CUT down on the useless Ministries . They should also chop down the legislative and Senate salaries while they're at it. DAMN If I WAS PRESIDENT, I wouldn't GIVE A DAMN whose ox is gored
Olosi oloriburku eda , do I blame you useless mistake of a human being , when you have every thing @ your fingertips because you are blue blooded .
It shall never be well with your generation , there shall be turn around in your life , you and all that belongs to you shall face hardship , you shall beg till you die , useless man .
What?!
sanusi should be sacked first.
With the high rate of unemployment? Maybe sanusi has started getting high. He might have a point but we always having problem of timing in nigeria. He should go and sit down joo.
Start with yourself sir.idiot!
Mr Sanusi pls behave urself! if the fund channeled for the proposed 3 billion naira 150 seater hall is utilized in the right cause, Nigeria will shift positively. You are calling for the sack of Civil servants. here urself! u want to increase the unemployment rate abi? My God will judge u!
This guy is sick in his medulla.... That's like rendering millions of people jobless. Well, if the illitrate litrate thought about the shadows of what he is asking for, he will know that he is letting crime increase and more death rate. He should not only be sacked ASAP but deported to his village to farm for the rest of his miserable life. Foolish somebody.
ezi ukwu!!!!!!!
Please Sanusi recalculate. All the money that u guys steal in one day is enuf to buy a country so shut the hell up. Wat wud happen wen over 50% are unemployed. Please draw that economic curve again.wen all ur people r busy sitting on oil money and doing absolutely nothing, u want to take away the small money people are earning. Guy plsssssssss.
can you imagine such a stupid talk from our supposed CBN governor. how was he even able to open that his stinky mouth to say such when our leaders are eating money anyhow they like. sanusi let me adivce you, reverse that statement and replace civil servant with senator and the rest.
it should begin from him, greedy sanusi

Mr man, that's the most arrogant and conceited thing to say. Your mentality is sick and I dare you to dispute me. Retard!
I know it sounds rash but I think he's absolutely right! ½ of these workers don't work, don't know their jobs and those few who do know, expect bribes. I think it should be NOI's call tho, not Sanusi's.
-Khad-
This man is a lunatic. No be only sack dem he for say make dem kill 50% make d population reduce.RSA
Oya, Leggo there! Let them Stop Employing, Start Sacking and Start Owing the Working Civil Servants; They are Servants after all! I was in the North where People Collect Salary without working........... Yes! As soon as your child completes His/Her Secondary Education, the next step is to secure employment by Proxy into the Local Govt.; that's the way they run things over there in the North, well, Sanusi is telling us the Cancer Worm that has eaten deep into the System of His Hausa-Fulani race Civil Service Culture! The North will be a good testing ground for this proposal!
hes right. if the records are forensically exmained, it will show that the 50% are actually ghost workers! now, over to the illiterate and myopic/under-thinking people to condemn his report.....
I talk am.that man don kolo finish.he's senile..he has to be SACKED ASAP..baba ode!imagin da trash!wat rubbish
How can he say that? Anyway y won't he wen he sits in his AC tight office and bring out such rubbish from his gutter mouth? Sanusi, its obvious u re still not satisfied with ur salary and allowances...and still wants more. We re trying to raid the country of hoodlums, robbers etc n ure vomitting this rubbish from ur mouth. How do u want those civil servants to cope with bills bills bills? Do u want them to take to the streets? Walahi ur house would be the ist I would start with if it were me. Parents are trying to put their ward/ children thru school with the peanut they earn as salaries n ure up there saying they should be sacked.I don't want to insult u cos ure a father n husband but let God judge u as ure trying to deprive pipo of their little earnings cos u happen to be in the position of power n money.
HE SHOULD SHOW GOOD EXAMPLE BY SACKING HIMSELF FIRST.
Mr CBN govnor,with dat ur glasses like smart cat,u are an idiot!!.as long as u will be d first to leave,.........so civil servants are suddenly d problem naija has abi.,how much are dey being paid afterall?
is the low salary not part of the reason of gross corruption in d public sector!
Infact go and sit down,I see u are a coward dat only fights d weak and dines with the real culprits!...
Sanusi has shown us that that he thinks in only one direction and his level of insensibility. In this age and time that other countries are strategizing to create more jobs, Sanusi is promoting umemployment. I wonder how he managed to became the Governor of CBN. It is pathetic and calls for examination of his mental and psychological health. Harmattan comes with varying degrees of psycho-related diseases.
Sadly, he is correct. But civil service only explains part of govt excess. The bulk of itcomes from ghost workers, Fake contracts, redundancy across govt sectors, largesse of legislators. Before Sanusi condemns he needs to break It down further. How many Civil servants per the total the total expenditure in question ie this amt divided by the no of civil servants... then do the same for the exec level of govt and legislative side make we see how e be. na exec and legislative bodies day do damage. word of wisdom- many will leave civil service if there are secure private sector jobs.
Sanusi doesn't know his work,he's just there trying to pave way to become d next Emir of kano.idiot
this guy na AntiChrist o. is that the only solution he can give
I agree with him thought not for his reasons. There non chalant attitude towards thr job is frustrating. So rude
70% spent on civil servants and the rest 30% of govt earnings is being stolen by crooked politicians! So guess what?....Firing these civil servants will only make room for more of our earnings to be stolen by these bastard politicians!!
Sorry, I would rather we are wasting our money paying our civil servants and NOT making many more Nigerians Unemployed!!!
If Sanusi is advocating for saving money, he should really start CUTTING, CURBING & FIGHTING CORRUPTION from the TOP; that is, from the presidency where Goodluck Jonathan is now requesting additional #billions of Naira for ordinary feeding allowance!!!#$SHAME$#
Its quite unfortunate we live in a society where d Govt demands so much of d citizens,while they're willing to make little or no sacrifice.
Is dis not d same country where billions are allocated for d food consumed by d presidency.
Is dis not d same country where half of d budget is for d fat salary and allowances of public office holders.
Is dis not d same country where d National assembly budgetary allocation,outweighs dat of education and health sector. Who is fooling who.
~BONARIO~says so via NOKIA3310
Is he not possesed??!
pls, he shld be bold and point d people involved wic is d senate n house of rep members, plus ol ds ministers, the salary of one person equals dat of 70 percents of civil servants, he is jx shying away From d truth
And then if they are sacked what should happen to them. How will they be able to survive. Do these foolish politicians hear themselves speak before they open their stinking mouth in public ehn? It will be an understatement if i say am tired of Nigeria.. We have a long way to go. Over here am idiot is saying they should fire 50%! of civil servants and our so called idiotic president is asking for increased allowance for food which is already well over billions of Naira and they just approved construction of a banquet hall in Aso rock costing billion of Naira, why don't they do something about that first and use that revenue for the people of Nigeria before calling for the sack of innocent people trying to make a livelihood in their motherland!
Sorry for my long epistle.. but the more i read things about Nigeria the more irritated i get and then i contemplate going back.
Can u imagine d nonsense?!! So they should spend the money on what? The wardrobe and furniture allowance of members of house of rep? Or is it for the feeding allowance of Aso rock villa?
they should start my sacking him and all them permanent secertaries.....nonsence
This man is very sick in d head do u realize mre dn half of d populace r civil servants?if u sack 50% wat wil hpn 2 d economy of d nation?will d remaining 50% b willing 2 do double d wrk of wat dy r usd 2 wit no salery increase?abg abg mk dm shift!anda avenue 2 loot!
He's right. Starting from the house of assembly..
You a stupid man
He would be d first person to be fired,IDIOT
Yes, Sanusi is right- we need to cut down the number of civil servants if we are to make the most of the civil service- in fact, civil servants are responsible for theft of billions of naira from the country every year. Even here in the UK, the government is moving to trim the civil service and government bodies and i think that Nigeria should do the same too. You don't need two passport officers to check your passport at the airport when you enter the country and you certainly don't need 20 customs officers to check your baggage as you leave the arrivals hall at the airport! Likewise, inefficient public servants should be sacked and more states should not be created. Additionally also, there are far too many local governments
Sanusi shld b sacked 1st..den i can volunteering resign..#onyioshi#
Starting with u lamido... Ode oshi..
Obviously, this man is crazy.
In this day & age where people are complaining of joblessness; he's suggesting that d few with jobs be sacked
Is that the solution?
Isn't he supposed to be finding ways that revenue generation increases?
These people are very stupid! Oh so it's okay for the government to spend over 2billon naira to build a banquet hall? But it's bad for the government to spend its revenue on civil servants? And now this useless Cbn governor is now saying they shoul fire 50%bof the civil servants. Who would give those people jobs? Dosnt he know that the high rate of unemployment in Nigeria is already high enough? I'm just sad for my country. Our leaders are heartless!!! Money and power have clouded their judgement! God help us oooo
You know say if perse chop belle full e go begin dey vomit. I no blame am, and yet na d same ugly mouth him type day talk say Boko Haram is due to lack of gainful employment. Make he resign nah. Akuya like him
IN fact sanusi u are a fool u have forgotten who u were years back mtssssssssswwwwwww
This useless man is just a reincarnation of d devil...pple re complainin bout no jobs n he's talkin about sacking d few dat have jobs...he's so heartless n wicked...only God can help nigeria
Make thunder fire that im mouth! Devil dey dance azonto for that im head. What nonsense?!
May Sanusi not wreck this country.
I agree with sanusi, he should include himself & all the worthless senators, ministers & perm secretaries. It's only in naija that most of its accrued revenue is used to sustain a non performing group of civil servants.
Nigeria govt is a poster child for waste, with all the money being lavished on the civil service there is absolutely nothing to show for it.
PLS I TOTALLY AGREE WITH HIM...
Everyone keeps blabbing about government being heartless and corrupt! Come 2015, some won't vote, some will, some will accept bribe for their vote, a lot will watch while rigging takes place.
Until we all say NO to corruption, it won't stop!! I assure you that!
Cowardly people...Linda I wish I had an accoun, I won't be anonymous...Simi
This olofo man should be sacked first& all his different accounts frozen.See his mouth like fowl yansh.
Animal b'cos of what u went through at d airport u want them to sack 50per of Nig workers, mad man if ur mama & papa dey work with fed govt & they sack them tell me how una go school fees,house rent & so on. I know sure say u dey ds country sef idiot.
Yes. Let's sack 50% starting from you idiot.... Na God go punish you and your family... Sanusi is just as anti-christ. I can bet it, he's the main man behind boko aram.
May Allah forgive CBN gov, it is not his fault may be his kids are not even I nig.He will be sacked first.Infact Linde post some prayers but christian one & Islamic one ds man need serious deliverance. I expected him to talk of over spending in precidency & senators own he dey talk bash.Is just b'cos he didn't came from priveat sector, next time govt sh pick CBN gov from govt sector even his policies is rubbish.
its a good idea and also its easy to say bcos he will not be among those to be sacked. the wrong ppl will the the ones to suffer it if actually implemented. get more details on http://gossippme.blogspot.com
starting from him
Sentiment aside, he is right. No Government should be spending such level of revenue on Salaries. There is something wrong, which needs to be addressed.
Sanusi is long brain dead..we simply just noticed.
Sanusi is long brain dead..we simply just noticed.
Exactly...and the same sanusi that calls himself an economist has forgoten that unemployment is a trait of bad economy and poor governance...how can he be talkin about sacking when in developed nations gov't give social benefit to people that are unemployed...now he wants gov't to cut spending n let 1 wicked politician siphon d money...very daft economist...economic principles that are based on assumptions that are never practical...
Unfortunately, Sanusi is telling the truth. If we cannot measure what these civil servants do, there should be fired. Unfortunately, there will not be a lot of savings because the real thieves are politicians and governors and their inability to create employment. The Nigerian govt is very bloated
This man is getting in sane...He needs to see a Doctor
100% agree and if continued, it'll make the days of SAP feel like...well I'll leave it to your imagination.
Sanusi is a confused man.He's not saying anything about the political office holders who embezzle billions of naira on monthly basis,those that defrauded Nigeria trillions of naira through the oil subsidy scam,to mention but a few.Civil servant are working legitimately for their earnings.if the excesses mentioned earlier could be stopped.We'll have more than enough
This was a man that wanted a cashless economy then later decided on 5000 Naira note, all the trillions that were plunged to save the failed banks,what was the result?Nationalisation. In my opinion, he may be mentally deranged pending the outcome of test results.
So somebody cannot even make an honest living in Nigeria again in peace, no wonder they say Nigeria is the worst country in the world to be born in. The man is a big fool, they should start by sacking HIM and all the other idiot ministers, senators and the likes because they do absolutely nothing but steal money plus the money spent on their salaries is an absolute waste, just look at the state of the country.
PS: lol at the people calling him the anti-christ, that could be a good explanation for his selfish wicked insensible acts.
Sanusi ÈŠ̝̊̅§ an idiot.....let dem sack him S̴̩☺̴̩̩̥ hell no Ð‚Æ ̴̴̴̴̴̴͡w it feels to be unemployed!!!!
Amen!!
Linda, please be posting full stories, not half! He has said the truth that all of us know. Most civil servants are a drain on the economy, lazy, incompetent and with a perverted sense of entitlement. SLS has spoken the truth. Half of them don't just go to work to sign and they leave work, and attend to their personal buisness. I have an aunt who works in one of the ministries, she closes @ 2pm, she even said some of them leave from like 12noon, why pay salaries to people who don't work?
even if 80% of civil servants are sacked,and nothing is done about the corrupt political office holders it will still be the same.what is the population of civil servants in Nigeria?what is the take home pay of an average civil servant in Nigeria?let's stop deceiving ourselves the problem is not with civil servant but CORRUPTION in the political realm.
I have asked before and am still asking, is Sanusi a demon. After rendering millions jobless in bank reforms he is shifting to Civil service. God will judge you and your unborn generations
Don't b talking thru ur anus my frnd,d senators wat do dr do that their seating allowance shld b dt much,and GEJ dt is advocating 4 increase in feeding allowance in aso rock running to billions on naira is dt not enuf to take care of the country..
The way people convey message is part of d problem of dis country.... How can u say "sack 50% of public servants"?
1) Politics i Nigeria is d most lucrative business in dis country
2) Public servants in dis country are the most disrespected people on earth e.g Teachers
3) In dis country, u must know someone who knows anoda sumone if u wanna bcom a business owner.. Buh if u dnt know anybody, lolzz... I cnt even say wah will happen
4)Corruption is now seen as a very normal thing in dis country.. Even our youths of today agrees so
5) No steady supply of power, and dis is a very big barrier to owing a business(i.e for a man dat knows nobody o)... Our corrupt elite is making massive money frm generator sale, so there is no fucking way will there be steady power
...d list is endless.... So wen all these oda tins mentioned above are serious issues to be treated, dis nonsense human wants to start wiv d bottom of d food chain of problems in dis country... Nonsense human being
@Anon 4;05pm, chill out! Its not that serious, gosh! Must you use all these gutter language to make your point known? Abeg chill and quit all these oloriburuku, oloshi rubbish language. They are better ways you can vet out your anger!
It is now certain that this man has his brain in the wrong place...what do you want them to be doing when you sack them? Are you not a civil servant or maybe you are part of the other 50% that will remain...Mallam please talk about the rot at the top and stop ranting like an overfed puppy...This Nigeria self...yuck!
So after the government fires "50% of civil servants"; they should come to your house to wack garri abi.......He clearly doesn't have any empathy. If he can put himself in the shoes of the average civil servant, he would not vomit this rubbish......ode
he,s a mad man let him be used as example. thieves in suits
Same thing Fashola did with Okada..then what happens to those sacked..what are the alternatives??..they never ever think of the consequences of their actions!!..useless leaders bereft of any policies that can transform a nation..only in AFRICA!!
Anon 4:05. Are you a human being? How can you curse out a person like that. Shit! Your heart must be running on black sooth and not blood. You actually cursed out on his generation. What a shame. Go check all the data, that is if you are not too sick to see the truth, you will know that the guy makes sense. The so called civil servants are holding Nigeria by the balls. They waste resources and precious time. When they are supposed to work, they are gisting, selling or having a party. They resume at 10am and close at 1pm from their mosque. How many of them civil servants can do that in civilized countries? Where you work your old ass off on an 8 hour shift. If you are caught using your phone, you are fired. Even if you are an oga. You are not allowed to use company time for personal business. But not so in my beloved country. Everybody in secretariats is a business man or woman. They sell recharge cards, toilet rolls, Ogi, chicken and turkey from Cotonou, Dubai gold, Dubai clothing s, tires, phones, handbags, name it. How can a country survive when every of its citizen is a rapist. They not only rape themselves, but they also rape the country. Have you heard that curse causeless does not stand. Check your bible.
I feel you !!!!
You are right, some of them all their wives and kids are on d payroll even the new born . Go to sanusi homestead and see rubbish.
Pls let's not missunderstand the rational for Sanusi saying what he said. It's probably the way he presented it. There are lots of inapproprite practices in the civil like ghost workers and absent staff that still gets paid. If u go to the secritariat u'll see members of staff gathered and watching tv and gossiping. When they are meant to be working because there is really nothing there to do. I wasnted a document signed for me sometime ago and they couldn't get someone to sign it for me. I kept on going there for two weeks. Yet there were lots of staff around but no one could attend to me. Lots of inefficiency and lackadesical attitude is the order of the day there.
My name is Ebis, i think we can do without 70% of today`s civil servants in Nigeria,let us face the fact,we know most of them are not even doing what they are paid to do.
Why not just cut down the number of legislators, ministers and other public office holders. Sacking 50% of civil servants will destroy our nation.
We have the most expensive government in the world and yet he has the audacity to suggest the sack of 50% of civil servants. The best solution is a reduction of government spending.
Pls, really think tru. Is it d common civil servant dat enjoys d benefits of dis'ghost workers'.let's not decieve ourselves, corruption has eaten too deep into d fabric nd soul of pple in dis country. SLS is givin d wrong drug 4 dis ailment. Let all corrupt pple be brought to book nd all avenue dat dey use in lootin, let it be blocked. Sackin workers will not be our solution.
The Nigerian trolls are out in full force. The man is absolutely right.
dey shld start 4rm legistrators ministers nd others nt all civil servant wo berry feed dem selves
I agree with him. Although this shld only be done after private sector jobs that'll hire these workers have been established and the bloated salaries and perks or ppl like Sanusi and our legislators have been greatly reduced. This so called 70% is probably mostly from the ppl at the top anyway
Animal b'cos of what u went through at d airport u want them to sack 50per of Nig workers, mad man if ur mama & papa dey work with fed govt & they sack them tell me how una go school fees,house rent & so on. I know sure say u dey ds country sef idiot.
This man, I hope you r not lucifer o!!
If this is done, pls tell me d criteria to b used for the sack, innocent hard workin nigerians will b affected abeg, they shud start cuttin dwn dia incomes n d moni dey steal n bugdet for federal food b4 openin their big mouths to increase unemployment rate, r we movin foward or backwards for God's sake. Msscheeeeew
A dog at home doesn't know how it feels to hunt for food until it's been sent into the wild.. Sanusi mgbo piawa kwa gi isi.. So with the current high rate of unemployment in the country, you still want to send half of the working populace back into the labour market.. I'm sick of all these 'I know it all Havard/Whatever uni alumni' with zero knowledge of what's happening on ground level trying to pull 'Boyle's Law' on innocent people.. Biko Mr google eyed pint sized boko haram in self denial member, take a deep breath.. It must be tiring speaking all these turenci
Cee has spoken
If they sack civil servants wot will happen to politicans.they shd fight corruption in nigeria. no b civil servant say make u no print #5000 naira note abeg
Now truly i believe this guy is a ranting clown. He should be sacked with immediate effect.
See linda help me tell that man say him papa
Sanusi is a mad man!!! Shey spending 2.2billion on a banquet hall for 150ppl is a beta way to put d available fund to use. Stupid banker talking rubbish
THE DUMB FUCK WAS CLAIMED TO HAVE EMPLOYED 2000 PEOPLE MAINLY FROM KANO INTO CBN, SHANU-SI WHERE IS THE LOVE. SHANU-SI MUST GO.
I love how this post is coming on the same day as the one where a 2 billion naira hall has been approved for Aso Rock. Sanusi's brain needs to be checked for a tumour. In a country where one human being has stolen billions of naira in people's pension and 70 year old men are collapsing in pension centres because of ridiculously small sums of money that haven't even been adjusted for inflation, they want to sack them abi? Let me not start to talk about the ways God will punish all these people.Meanwhile I'm sure Patience Jonathan is eating Perm Sec salary for being a first lady.
Ibrahim said sanusi is a joker
Sanusi is crazy and high! wot is he smoking now? B4 it was 5000 naira single note, now he's calling for sack letters. Sanusi pls go to rehab.
SUE
He said the fact. Most r ghost workers. Am sure he meant it 4 d ghost workers

November 29, 2012 9:05 PM''
I was privy to watch the speech sanusi gave on this issue, it made perfect sense. so from the post above, its simple there is NO MONEY to improve or boost the private sector, majority of states are broke even before they collect monthly allocation cause it all goes to paying salaries. infrastructure will never improve or get built and nigeria will never move forward.
Sanusi needed to have a rethink/reevaluate his decision before proceeding to make this statement. If he really wants to do an outstanding job, let him "man up" and not only set up policies that curb over inflation and corruption in contracts (that don't see the light of day), and overspending, but actually apply those policies. He can't promote the firing of these civil servants and then turn a blind eye to the exorbitant amount to build some seats in Aso rock. The last time I was home to survey my hometown to assess where to help, I saw some schools that need touch ups and the university's 500-lecture theater is... Most Nigerian leaders and Nigerians in position should stop this nonsense of "money - miss- road" and rearrange Nigeria's priority and put the nation and it's citizens first for once. What I'm most happy about is KARMA. What these "evil and selfish" people don't know or refuse to grasp is that the world is a universe and for every action, there's a equal and opposite reaction... if not now, but in their generation(s) to come, they will experience the appropriate reaction(s)and shouldn't cry why me when they reap what they are sowing...
They need to start with him first. it would save a boat load of money
I accept his decision only if all graduates in nigeria without jobs are paid monthly allowance,then am cool with his decision.cos there's a lot of money in dis country but Is been taken by few peeps#God is watching# one Nigeria
He speaks the truth....open your eyes people, the government is too big.
Haba! This is too much!!!!! What has he done that u have to curse himm and his generation? What has other people in his generation done to u? Why would u dish out curses like that. That's not very nice, we need to learn how to control our emotions and the things that comes out of our lips. Everyone has his own opinion and us would do well to state urs and let eveybody be!!!!!
This guy is bold and fearless, You have to give that to him. When he famously said that 25% of our revenue was used to maintain our legislators, we were all quick to agree and hail him. Now, he fires another cold hard truth on 50% of our civil servants being redundant and we all want to crucify him. Abeg free d guy joor! Sanusi is the least of our problems, ask uncle Jona how all this rot is happening right under is nose. He knows and he does nothing! What a waste!
Ehhhh - True is very bitter - Sanusi is the only man that speaks the truth point blank!
you're a mad man.lets start with you first by sacking you.so where exactly do u want the money to go your pocket?
well if he said d ministers it wud b okay n if he says d allowances d senate, house of reps, ministers, advisers, governors, presido shuld be reduced it wud b better. U dont suffer d citizens 2 acommodate d politicians stupid spendings.
I dont totally agree. The solution is to reduce th amount paid to senators and etc and not sack. Also a re-evaluation of dormant civil servants must b looked into. half of them dont even earn d money paid
this sanusi is haertless, upone all the complaint abaut unemployment in nigeria he still have the course to said sack civil servant.
He should either resign,or be sacked.. What nonsense.
Do u know many state govt have little or no resources after paying salaries. Salaries and allowances gulp more than 50% of most state and LGA revenue. And u want development, good roads, basic amenities - I am sure u are expecting magic
I think the Government should start with him (introduction of =N= 5,000 Note) and other things he done, then others follow
Bless you
a typical example of an intelligent person is anony 4:05,a typical example of an ode is anony 4:05b yoruba goat. cant u communicate without showing the razzness in u.
SLS is a big disappointment,he obviously loves to hear the sound of his voice. He should concentrate on his job as CBN Gov,rather than getting in the murky waters of politics . He should tell us the annual budget of the CBN and stop grandstanding for cheap popularity
You think if Sanusi gets sacked today, he will be bothered? I think not! This man is so full of himself. gone are the days when we loved this man for standing up for justice. Now he just screams "Yes! I am one of dem corrupt leaders, what are you gonna do about it!" Similarly to Dora Akunyili, They all start well and end up being worse than what they stood for. I'm seriously praying for Nigeria!
No problemoh....he should go first after all leaders should lead by example
Technically sanusi is right, but also wrong, u complain that civil savants ® lazy, they don't do there duties, there ghost workers, blah blah blah, the question is sacking them the solution, if they are lazy n they don't do there duties it because u have made rooms for it, if u run the ministry like private companies, u demand what u paying for from them, u will definitely get a good result, the ones that ® not ready to work will even resign before u sack them. About the ghost worker ish, its not civil servants fault that that is in existence, the bosses ® creating them just to embezzle money, the perm sec, there fin sec are all responsible, why don't u put a system in place that will fully utilize this civil servants rather saying u wanna sack them because they aint doing nothing
sanusi is insane
While Sanusi is very right in his speech, there is no economic framework for competitiveness in nigeria so that particular action will not have the desired effect. It is quite sad the way the country is going but now more than ever we need to diversify the economy and stop depending on crude oil and the government alone
OMG! i'm disappointed at dis Man.... tot he was an intelligent man... he is not looking at d side effect of his recommended action. pls GEJs should 'delete' him off his 'post'
Well said ...bt we hv 2 stat wit u sanusi. Idiot
Wake up Nigerians. Where on earth do government generate revenues only to pay salaries to few citizens. It is strange. That may be the reason we are still far far far behind
Whose fault is dt civil servants do not do their jobs competently?And those that are at the top,what exactly do they do??How many issues have they resolved??Yet each time they seat they are entitled to a huge amount of money.Do u know how much is allocated for the feeding of the president?So there shd be checks n balances in all dese areas, not coming out to say craps lik d revenue not bin enough to sustain d civil service!!
Sanusi calling for the sack of 50% of civil servants in Nigeria seems to be very hard on the civil servants as civil servants oppose this greatly.
According to him, there should be reduction on the amount the government spends on re-current expenditure as it doesn't foster development. When more money is spent on re-current expenditure and capital expenditure is allocated less money, there won't be development.
Some have argued that Sanusi should find other means of developing the country rather than making 50% of the civil servants jobless considering the rate of unemployment in the economy.
No doubt, these could lead to a lot of vices in the economy like high rate of crime, fraudulent acts, e.t.c. It could also lead to more poverty and low standard of living of the people.
Some of the civil servants are known mostly to be corrupt,others known to be ghost workers, while some just go to their offices and do whatever they like.
Meanwhile, among them, there are some that can barely eat three square meals a day, sacking these people would mean abject poverty for them.
Another concern for me are those old people who have no other means of income and has been working with the civil service for long, would they join young graduates in search of jobs?
In other to cut down on government expenses on re-current expenditure which doesn't add to development in Nigeria, I suggest that only the bad eggs or corrupt ones among the civil servants should be sacked.
Also, if at all Sanusi wants the government to go with his suggestion, I recommend provisions should be made for people who would be sacked than for them to be sacked and make them join the list of graduates that are still in search of jobs.
Am also of the opinion that there are other ways to aid development; government cutting down on unnecessary budget in the economy, unnecessary allowances, setting their priorities right and so on.
