The governor’s directive was contained in memo signed by the Anambra State Head of Service, Barr Theodora Igwegbe.
The statement read thus: “Following the need to reposition the service for better performance and productivity, His Excellency, Professor Charles Chukwuma Soludo has directed that all public servants should henceforth report at their places of work on Mondays as they do on other work days.
