FG Applauds Ebonyi For Pioneering Civil Service Reward Scheme

FG Hails Ebonyi’s Civil Servant Reward Scheme as Model for Good Governance

The Federal Government has applauded Ebonyi State’s innovative system of rewarding excellence in public service, describing it as a model for responsive and people-focused governance.

Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, gave the commendation in Abakaliki while leading a high-powered federal delegation to assess how collaboration between federal and state governments is improving citizens’ welfare, according to Ireporter Online.

Idris lauded Ebonyi’s prudent management of funds saved from the removal of fuel subsidy, noting that the resources were being channelled into tangible projects that directly benefit the people.

“This is what a listening government looks like—applying resources to priorities that the people themselves value,” the minister said.

Highlighting one of such initiatives, Governor Francis Nwifuru showcased the newly completed Civil Servant Reward Estate, which he described as the first of its kind in South-East Nigeria.

The project saw outstanding teachers, top-performing civil servants, and achievers—including a young Afro-basketball star—receive fully built houses at no cost.

“When people serve with dedication, they deserve recognition and reward,” Governor Nwifuru stated, affirming his administration’s commitment to celebrating excellence across the state.
