Chairman of the Association of Senior Civil Servants of Nigeria ( ASCSN), Comrade Isiah Adeigbe has said that the Registrar of the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Professor Is-haq Oloyede is passionate about staff welfare.
Speaking in Abuja in an interview with JAMBulletin, a weekly newsletter of JAMB, Comrade Adeigbe said the Registrar is committed to doing everything possible within the ambit of the law to turn around the lives of the staff of the agency for the better.
The labour leader therefore urged staff of the Board to keep faith with Prof Oloyede in his avowed determination to better their lot.
Comrade Adeigbe recalled that on assumption of Oloyede as JAMB Registrar, he waisted no time in unveiling a service contract that had been serving as his guide in tackling the onerous assignment bestowed upon him.
He pointed out that the first thing on the agenda was enhanced staff welfare which was closely followed by discipline, improved technology, transparency and advanced networking.
He stated that Oloyede, whom he described as the “number one union man for the staff” had not failed in his promises and that the union was delighted with the various lifelines that the Registrar had provided to staff with debilitating ailments and payment of medical bills in addition to other interventions aimed at bettering lives and improving efficiency.
