Kwara State Governor, Alhaji Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq on Friday flagged-off the distribution of computers and other office tools to various Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) in the state to equip the civil service with modern tools and make the workers more efficient.

Abdulrazaq said the administration purchased the computers, monitors, printers, UPS and photocopiers following his discoveries that most of the offices either did not have them or the ones they had were not working.

He said this at a brief event to distribute the equipment in Ilorin, the state capital.

“I am not saying that these equipment will solve all your problems today but just like a journey of a thousand miles, which starts with a step, I believe this is a first step and we will continue to build on this,” the governor explained.

Permanent Secretary Ministry of Works, Transport and Housing Dr Garba Manjo said the Governor’s decision to not hurriedly move workers around after he was sworn in testifies to his maturity and respect for institutions.
