Governor Ambode warns perm secretaries against compromise in discharging duties.

The Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, has warned civil servants,
especially the permanent secretaries, in the state against compromise in the
discharge of their duties to the people.
The governor said he would hold the permanent secretary liable in any ministry
found to have compromised in the state.
Ambode spoke on Wednesday at the Lagos House, Ikeja, during the swearing-
in of 19 new permanent secretaries.

He reminded the new accounting officers of the state ministries that the
quality of service delivered by this government would be measured through
them on daily basis.
He said, “Any ministry where the quality of service is compromised, the
permanent secretary, as the accounting officer, would be held liable. I expect
nothing but excellence in this centre of excellence.
“I expect you to apply the best tenets of the civil service in your roles as
accounting officers of your ministries, making excellent service and the
common good of all Lagosians your watchwords.
“Your appointments, from a pool of equally competent and qualified directors,
were as a result of a careful selection based on merit, professionalism and
proven track record of service to the state.”
