“The Executive Council has approved that the reinstatement takes effect from May 2020, when their colleagues in LAUTECH who were also affected, resumed office”.

The State Executive Council meeting held on Tuesday, September 29, 2020, at the Exco Chamber, Governor’s Office, approved that the 41 LAUTECH Staff that were affected by the sack order issued by the last administration, be reinstated and their five months’ salaries be paid.

“We are using this opportunity to call on the affected individuals and those not affected to see the magnanimity of the governor as a booster to put more efforts into their work and help reposition the notable institution for the better.”
