In another tweet, he said: “…the reform of the size, cost & quality of overbloated, inefficient & barely educated public service is at stake here. We will neither retreat nor concede to any thoughtless & corrupt political hacks ever!”

The state government had said the five-day warning strike by the NLC, which began on Monday, will not distract it from its plan to ‘rightsize’ the civil service.

But Wabba, who addressed civil servants in the state on Monday, vowed to bring the El-Rufai administration to its knees until the sacked workers are recalled.
