Katsina Sells Government Quarters To Workers

Katsina Sells Government Quarters To Workers

The Katsina State Government has sold its quarters to the state's civil servants occupying the houses for years.

The quarters were sold on a workers-owner-occupier basis.

This was disclosed by the state's Head of Service, Idris Tune while interacting with Newsmen at his office.

Tune explained that the houses were sold to the workers at discounted rates. 

"We took a census of all the civil servants that have been occupying government quarters over the years and we assessed the quarters and sold them under the workers-owner-occupier basis. 

“The value given to the houses was discounted in a manner that civil servants can afford to pay. 

"Those who are not willing to pay can transact and arrange with people who have the capacity to pay and in the process, most civil servants were able to change their lives for better," Tune said. 

Tune also commended the state governor, Aminu Bello Masari, for the vehicle loan given to civil servants in the state to ease their movements to work. 

He added that the civil servants also benefitted from the governor's Primary Health Care (PHC) programme.

He explained that the programme which was under the "One Roof and the Contributory Health Agency” has made healthcare more affordable for the state's civil servants.
