Sit-at-home: Soludo orders Anambra workers to work on Mondays or be sanctioned
Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo has ordered all public servants in the state to always report to work on Mondays, like other weekdays.
Since the resumption of trial of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Mr Nnamdi Kanu, the group had called for a shutdown of businesses on Mondays, but later rescinded it.
Despite the rescinding of the decision by the separatist group, there have been fear of attacks on those who go to work, leading to the continued stay at home every Monday.
In some parts of the state, Saturdays have been adopted as working days, including schools and banks as a replacement for Monday.
But in a move to return Monday to a normal working day, Prof. Soludo on Friday, through the Head of Service, Barr. Theodora Igwegbe ordered workers to always ensure they are at their duty posts on Mondays.
In a circular dated today, 25th March 2022, which was signed by Igwegbe and sighted by DAILY POST, Soludo warned that absence from work on Mondays will attract sanctions.
