Massive Transfer hit Staff of MMDAs in Savannah Region
"By a copy of this letter, the Head of the receiving Assemblies are respectfully requested to report to this office on assumption of duty of the officers at their new stations, with copies to the office of the Head of Local Government Service"
Staff of the Local Government Service within the Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies (MMDAs) in the Savannah Region have been hit with massive transfers as a result of long stay.
In a letter signed and issued on behalf of the Regional Minister, the Regional Coordinating Director, Yaw Adu-Asamoah, indicated that the affected officers are expected to report to their new stations on or before 25th April,2022.
“The Savannah Regional Coordinating Council has authorized the posting of the underlisted officers….with effect from 25th April,2022….
You are kindly requested to release the officers to report to their new stations.
“By a copy of this letter, the Head of the receiving Assemblies are respectfully requested to report to this office on assumption of duty of the officers at their new stations, with copies to the office of the Head of Local Government Service.
This letter takes precedence over our earlier letter no CA/16/16/01A/211 dated 1st April,2022,” the letters reads.
Sources close to this reporter from the Savannah Regional Coordinating Council has it that workers who have spent more than five years in their current stations are being transferred to different districts within the region, whilst those who have served ten years or more are required by law to be transferred out of the region (Inter-regional transfers).
It is believed that the long stay of the officers at their current post was breading inefficiency and low productivity,hence the need for the transfers.
