Ebonyi State Governor Francis Nwifuru just made yuletide merry for workers, announcing a fat N150,000 Christmas bonus for every civil servant big or small despite lean state revenues over the past year.
He dropped the bombshell during Sunday service at Government House Chapel in Abakaliki, framing it as rock-solid proof of his admin’s worker-first vibe, while vowing a clean slate for the upcoming local government polls: no anointed picks, no interference—just the people’s choice on a level field.
Nwifuru doubled down on his rule that any political appointee eyeing council chairmanship must resign per electoral law, insisting it’s not his call to crown anyone—pure democracy in action for Ebonyi’s grassroots power shift.
