By Ben Ngwakwe, Gombe
The Director -General and Chief Executive Officer of National Productivity Centre (NPC), Dr. Kashim Akor, has praised the performance of the Gombe State Governor, Alhaji Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, in line with the vision and mission of the centre.
Akor, who made this commendation in his office on Friday when the Special Adviser on Strategy and Information Management, Alhaji Ahmed Shuaibu-Gara Gombe, paid him a courtesy visit said the NPC was willing to encourage and support any state government that promotes productivity of the people.
Akor said, “It is for this particular reason that we are partnering with the Gombe State government and that is why we regard the forthcoming Gombe State Productivity Merit Award as a welcome idea and resolved to be fully involved.”
It could be recalled that the Governor Yahaya Administration has redefined productivity in Gombe State since his assumption of office in 2019.
The efforts of State government’s productivity indices included the Multi billion Naira Regional Water Expansion Project, the Muhammadu Buhari Industrial Park Project that will generate electricity, potable water,jobs opportunities and revenue.
Others are the establishment of three Mega Schools Model, the construction of network road coded 11/100 road project across the eleven local government areas and the renovation and upgrade of all the primary healthcare centres across the state.
The Governor’s people-oriented projects that have endeared the hearts of the people towards his purposeful administration made the re- election bid for 2023 general elections easy because of the massive transformation in all the sectors.
While the Productivity Merit Award with the theme “Governor Inuwa Yahaya Legacy of Excellence in Public Service” is scheduled to hold in January in Gombe.
