The plan by the Federal Government (NigeriaGov) to implement the Oronsaye Report will lead to job losses in public service, NASU, has warned.
The plan by the Federal Government to implement the Oronsaye Report will lead to job losses in public service, the Non Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions , has warned.
The 800-page report known as the Oronsaye report, had recommended the abolition and merger of 102 government agencies and parastatals, among others, to drastically cut the cost of governance. “It is going to bring about job losses and poverty and this is not the time to throw people into the over-saturated unemployment market.
The union urged the government to jettison the advice of putting the jobs of workers in the affected agencies in jeopardy through the implementation of the report as it will put more families and households on the poverty line.
