Sit-at-home: Enugu Govt Tasks Federal Workers still Observing Order to Desist

The Enugu State Government has urged federal workers in the state still observing the sit-at-home on Mondays to desist henceforth.

Ken Chukwuegbo, the principal secretary to Governor Peter Mbah, made the appeal on Monday when he visited the federal secretariat in Enugu, together with the state Head of Service, Kenneth Ugwu.

He said that the state was losing a lot because of their absence from work on Mondays.

Recall that Governor Peter Mbah had declared Monday sit-at-home imposed by the Indigenous People of Biafra illegal in the state upon assumption of office in 2023.

According to him, there is no sit-at-home in the state any longer.

The Governor said that the state was not under siege, adding that the poor attitude to work by the federal workers in the state was denying the people their services.

Meanwhile during the visit on Monday, Chukwuegbo said, “We cannot continue like this. If the state workers can go to work on Mondays, I don’t see the reason federal workers cannot do the same.

He, appealed to the workers to come to the office on the first day of the week, assuring them of their safety.
