This was contained in a statement signed by Boniface Onyedi, media aide to the governor, and sent to reporters.
Fubara stated that the employment process contravened the earlier approval of the government, which okayed the employment of 420 academic staff out of a total of 867 persons, but on the contrary, a total of 1,900 persons were employed, out of which only 123 were academic staff.
He stated that the employment process would be revisited strictly with the initial approval.
“We must give our people the best; that decision is in the best interest of the state and, more especially, the future of our state,” he said.
