The Chairman of the Cross River State Civil Service Commission, Sir Maurice Effiwatt, KSJI, has said that the state Governor, His Excellency Senator Prince Bassey Edet Otu, is deeply concerned about the welfare of civil servants in the state.
Effiwatt stated this on Wednesday in Calabar while declaring open a two-day in-house training for staff of the Commission employed between 2019 and 2025.
The training, held at the Conference Hall of the Commission, New Secretariat Complex, Calabar, was aimed at enhancing productivity through effective and efficient service delivery to the public.
According to the Chairman, Governor Otu has demonstrated his commitment through various programmes approved to build the capacity of civil servants through training and retraining.
"The importance of training cannot be over-emphasized. There is no human endeavour that does not require training, be it artisans or professionals," Effiwatt said.
He noted that it is important at different times for one to appraise what has been done and analyse the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats, in order to re-equip oneself for the challenges ahead.
He commended the organizers, resource persons and staff of the Commission for the initiative.
Some of the topics treated at the training included Overview of Training Objectives, Civil Service Structure, Ethics and Traditions delivered by Dr. Dominic Ogbeche; Customer Service and Service Delivery in the Public Service and Discipline and Appeals handled by Dr. Isang Ofem; Security in Government by Mrs. Patience Egbe; and Rules on Appointment and Leaving the Service by Mrs. Patricia Duncan.
Others were Registry Management by Mr. Noel Agbojor, Financial Regulations in Government by Mr. Fabian Abeng, Conflict Management in Government by Mr. John Johnny and Communication in Government by Dr. Iloke Egbe.
Highlight of the event was the formal induction of staff into the service by the Chairman and the signing of the Oath of Secrecy by the inductees.
