Danladi Jatau, speaker of Nasarawa House of Assembly, has warned workers of the law-making arm against truancy.

He gave the warning on Thursday in Lafia during a meeting with the management staff of the assembly.

He urged them to live up to their responsibilities to enhance service delivery.

“I want to urge you to discharge your duties without fear or favour and according to the civil service rules. You are the administrators, and you must instill discipline in the younger ones,” he said.

The speaker said the assembly staff found wanting in the discharge of assigned tasks to be dealt with and appreciated the management staff for their support.

The speaker promised to make staff welfare a priority to boost productivity.

“I believe in staff welfare and motivation because it enhances productivity,” he said.

He also appreciated the support he was getting from his colleagues, urging them to sustain the same.

In response, the acting clerk of the house, Ibrahim Musa, assured the speaker of total commitment to duties.

He said the lapses observed would be addressed.
