BYSG Charges Civil Servants to Be Proactive in-Service Delivery

The Bayelsa State Government (BYSG), through the Civil Service Commission in collaboration with the Office of the Head of Service, has charged civil servants to be proactive and committed to efficient service delivery.

This directive was issued during a joint inspection exercise on compliance with work ethics across Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) on Tuesday, 22nd March 2026.

Speaking during the exercise, the Chairman of the Civil Service Commission, Mr. Buruboyefe Perekiye John, expressed concern over the level of non-compliance observed, particularly arbitrary lateness to work among staff of various ministries, parastatals, and agencies. He emphasized that the government will not tolerate such behaviour and warned that any officer found wanting will face appropriate disciplinary action.

He further advised civil servants across ministries, parastatals, and MDAs to adopt proper work ethics and maintain punctuality, stressing the importance of studying and adhering to the Public Service Rules as a guide to professionalism and accountability in the Civil Service.

In his remarks, the Head of Service, Dr. Wisdom Ebiye Sawyer,mni, reiterated that the Prosperity Government will not condone lateness and indiscipline in the workforce. He urged workers to remain punctual, dedicated, and proactive in the discharge of their duties to enhance productivity and service delivery across the state.

Dr. Sawyer further reaffirmed government developmental strides and sustained commitment to the welfare of civil servants. He highlighted key initiatives such as the regular and prompt payment of salaries and pensions, timely promotion, Christmas bonuses, training and retraining programmes, improved welfare packages, and capacity-building initiatives. He also noted the recent construction of the iconic nine-storey secretariat complex aimed at providing a more conducive working environment for state civil servants.

The joint inspection underscores the government’s commitment to strengthening discipline, efficiency, and accountability within the Bayelsa State Civil Service.
