The Kwara State Government has directed all staff under its local government payroll to register with the Kwara State Residents Registration Agency (KWASRRA) at designated centrer across the 16 local government Council secretariats.
The statement was shared on Thursday via the Facebook page of the state government.
In a statement signed by Alhaji Umar Danladi Shero, the Executive Chairman of the Kwara State Local Government Service Commission and the Local Government Pension Board, he clarified that the exercise is not aimed at targeting or punishing any staff member.
Instead, it is intended to accurately document staff numbers and gather necessary information to support effective policy-making.
Alhaji Shero assured that all arrangements have been made to ensure a smooth registration process, with prior notifications sent to all 16 local government councils.
He, however, cautioned that any staff member who fails to participate in the exercise will be deemed illegitimate and will face consequences.
The Chairman reiterated the state government’s new policy of “No Registration, No Salary or Bonus,” emphasizing that it will be strictly enforced.
“Alhaji Umar however said any staff who decides to make his or herself unavailable for the exercise will be considered as an illegitimate officer of the council.
Reiterating this, he noted that the new policy by the state government of ‘No Registration No Salary and Bonus’ will not be hesitated to be applied,” the statement noted.
