To further demonstrate its caring heart policy, the Ondo State government has
given out a whooping N300m as car loan to 600 teaching and non-teaching
staff in the state ‘s employment.
Beneficiaries of the car loan were yesterday presented with the cheques which
has a 10 per cent repayment interest.
The State’s Commissioner for Education, Barr. Remi Olatubora, who presided
over the presentation ceremony, said the essence of the loan scheme was to
motivate the beneficiaries for better performance.
Represented by the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry, Mrs. Taiwo
Kolawole, the Commissioner added that the scheme will in no small way
increase the workers productivity and reduce loss of manpower due to access
to means of easy transportation.
“Government has again demonstrated its commitment to the implementation of
workers welfare policies. It has manifested in this loan scheme for teaching
and non-teaching staff in the realization of
the fact that they hold the key to the future of the nation.
In his address, the Chairman of the state’s Teaching Service Commission,
Barr. Fola Amure, dismissed the insinuation making the rounds that the
scheme will soon be discontinued by the state
government.
According to him, “there is no iota of truth in the insinuations that government
will no longer give out car loan after the one being given because of insufficient
fund. Please don’t listen to the tale bearers. This loan is a revolving one and it
is a continuous exercise.
“For the umpteenth time, I want to plead with you the beneficiaries that you
should justify the good intention of government in giving out this car loan and
reciprocate it by working harder in order not to
render government investment on its teaching workforce a waste.
Amure praised the government for the massive renovation of school buildings
and construction as well as equipping of Science laboratories in selected
schools across the 18 local government areas
of the state as part of the efforts to revamp and upscale education at the
secondary school level.
