He said the welfare of workers remains a priority, stressing that motivated staff are critical to achieving the economic and developmental objectives of the state government.
The commissioner also commended the Permanent Secretary of the ministry for what he described as responsible and effective coordination of staff activities, which, according to him, has contributed significantly to improved productivity and administrative harmony within the ministry.
Uramah urged the staff to sustain their dedication to duty and continue to align with the reform-driven governance style of the present administration, anchored on transparency, efficiency and results-oriented public service.
