Anambra State civil servants Monday disobeyed the State Government’s command to report to work every Monday, in defiance of the IPOB’s sit-at-home edict.
The majority of government offices visited were under lock and key, according to a NAN correspondent who observed the situation in Awka.
On March 25, Governor Charles Soludo’s government issued a circular instructing personnel to report to their duty positions on Mondays, according to Anaedoonline.ng.
Absence from duty on Mondays or any other official workday without clearance, according to the statement issued by the Head of Service, Mrs Theodora Igwegbe, will be seen as significant misconduct and will result in appropriate punishments.
On Monday, March 28, however, only a few junior workers were seen lingering around the state secretariat compound.
According to NAN, even the Office of the Head of Service, together with the ministries in the block, was also under lock and key.
Most staff buses, which convey workers to and fro their offices were also seen parked in the secretariat.
Some of the buses included Route 1 for Awka- Ogidi-Onitsha, Route 2 for Awkuzu-Otuocha and Route 4 for Awka-Agulu-Ekwulobia.
