Jigawa State government appointees have signed a bond assuring optimal performance in the discharge of their official responsibilities.
The state governor, Malam Umar Namadi, presided over the signing of the performance bond on Thursday committing commissioners and other heads of Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) to perform optimally in the discharge of their responsibilities or get sacked.
The governor said the performance bond was meant to commit officials to being dedicated to the jobs in their respective places of assignment upon which they would be assessed on a quarterly and yearly basis.
He added that he would be signing an executive order to establish a results delivery and performance management coordination unit under the office of the governor.

“The unit will be charged with the responsibility of coordinating and managing a performance measurement tracking system to ensure effective delivery of results,” he said.
Namadi further pointed out that the commissioners would sign the performance bond committing them to deliver on the set targets/results by working to the best of their ability to deliver within the specified timeline and to be held responsible for any unjustified failure in that respect.
