The Acting Chief Judge of kogi state, Hon.Justice Josiah Joe Majebi, has promised to implement the recommendation of Justice Mohammed Etsu Umar Committee which looked into abnormality in the employment of some staff of the state high court between 2021 and 2022.
The acting Chief Judge,who made the promise in Lokoja while receiving the report of the committee from the Chairman, thanked the committee for the job weldone.
Justice Majebi said the committee’s assignment continued, adding that it is a permanent committee which would be functional throughout his tenure in office.
He commended the state Judges for their new supervisory roles over Directorates of the High Court, noting that the High Court of Justice of the state was defined in the past by the quality of its Judges blessed with wisdom, knowledge, competence, calmness and discipline.
Earlier while submitting the committee’s report, the Chairman disclosed that the committee had recommended termination of staff employed into the system through ,”abnormal process.”
Justice Umar said the recommendation was based on the report that,names of persons on the pay roll of the High Court were not found on the court’s nominal roll (register).
“After a careful check of the names of newly employed staff from January 2021 to June 2022, the staff disposition list and payroll, it was discovered that some of the names on the payroll could not be found on the staff disposition list of the courts and other departments.
“Therefore, it is an indication that though their names are on the pay roll but they do not have duty stations and do not work anywhere in the Inspectorate offices.
“It is our recommendation that it is an abnormality for a staff to be on pay roll without duty station. Such situation should be immediately corrected by termination of employment of such persons affected,” the Chairman said.
