Nigerians decry poor state of public service
A cross section of prominent Nigerians have criticised the condition of public accommodation in the country.
Those who verbalized with SUNDAY PUNCH described civil accommodation as germane to the development of any society.
Speaking to our correspondent in a telephone interview, a Second Republic joint House Leader, Dr. Junaid Mohammed, described public accommodation as including civil accommodation, the police, paramilitary and politics.
He verbalized Nigeria commenced at independence with one of the best civil accommodations in the world.
Mohammed likened the sector to that of Indian, which, according to him, surmounted the “noble vocation of the British civil accommodation.”
“We built on it, amended it and fine-tuned it to suit our local circumstances,” Mohammed integrated.
The medical medico-turned-politician additionally described Nigeria as heterogeneous.
He verbalized, “It is multi-ethnic, multi-cultural and multi-sectarian, with a professional civil accommodation that is well trained. It has integrity and prestige.
“It has enough aplomb to stand up to military or political pressure.”
Mohammed verbalized that eventually, younger graduates would emerge to revolutionise the public accommodation with computer literacy and other obligatory skills, which, he verbally expressed, older civil coadjutants did not have.
Withal, the Vice Chancellor, University of Lagos, Prof. Rahaman Bello, told SUNDAY PUNCH that public accommodation was the main engine of governance of a nation.
He verbalized, “The quality of people in the accommodation is what will determine the kind of accommodation the public gets. So, it is essential to reinforce the public accommodation and make it as functional as it should be, so the nation will get first-class accommodations and all things will go in the way the people will appreciate.”
In his submission, a former Governor of Kaduna State, Balarabe Musa, verbalized up till 1976, public accommodation in the country was reliable
