The federal ninistry of power, in alignment with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s commitment to improved staff welfare, has made available a new fleet of staff buses for use by staff of the ministry.
This is with a view to ameliorating the hardship being experienced by the ministry’s staff with regards to transportation to and from work.
Two (2) 32-seater Coaster buses and 3 Hiace buses were recently provided by the Ministry for staff use. These brand new buses were commissioned by the permanent secretary, Mr.Temitope Fashedemi, and handed over to staff union leaders at the ministry’s headquarters in Abuja recently.
The permanent secretary, while handing over the buses, charged the staff to ensure that the buses were properly handled and managed judiciously. He further emphasized that using the buses efficiently will not only prolong their life-span but help to increase staff productivity.
Fashedemi also advised the ministry to continue to add new ones to the fleet of staff buses.
In addition to the new buses, the ministry also refurbished the grounded old staff buses for staff use in order to ensure that the current high cost of transportation and hardship being experience by staff has been reduced to the barest minimum.
Earlier, the director of human resources management in the ministry, Victoria Adeosun, thanked the permanent secretary and the management of federal ministry of power for the effort being put in place for the wellbeing of the staff and constant improvement in staff welfare.
A representative of the union, Ann assured the permanent secretary that the staff buses will be judiciously and effectively managed in order to ensure sustainability.
