He said “I have no doubt that working together and putting the interest of our state first, we can rapidly reposition our state for peace and progress. Be assured that this Government will not take your support for granted. Our most valued asset as a government is our workers. Labour and Government must collaborate to assist the Local Governments to restructure so that they would be better positioned to address their perennial problems of unpaid salaries and pensions, low revenue generation and poor service delivery.”

Obaseki said the Civil Service Training School will be upgraded, so civil servants will be trained for better service delivery.
