Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq’s government of Kwara State has issued a notice stating that employees lacking a valid residency registration number from Kwara State will not be paid their salaries or bonuses starting November 2024.
This development was announced in a statement released in Ilorin on Monday by the state’s Finance Commissioner, Dr. Hauwa Nuru.
Nuru mentioned that the process of registering began a long time ago.
Naija News understands that the Kwara State Residents Registration Agency (KWSRRA) is legally authorized to collect essential information from all residents and assign unique identification numbers to each individual for efficient planning, management of resources, provision of services, and ensuring public safety, among other purposes.
“In line with the administration’s commitment to accountability and transparency in resource administration, a directive had since been issued mandating all state employees, including those across the 16 local government areas, to complete their registration KWSRRA.
“Effective November 2024, workers who have not registered will not receive salary payments or bonuses.
“The KWSRRA registration is a vital step toward establishing a comprehensive and accurate database that enables us to serve Kwara State residents more effectively.
“Ensuring that every state worker is registered strengthens our payroll system, enhances service delivery, and builds trust in our processes,” according to Nuru.
The statement explained that the initiative will play a key role in resource management and planning within the state.
“The integrity of our data impacts all our financial and administrative systems. A complete database helps us make informed decisions, allocate resources efficiently, and ensure that every eligible worker is compensated fairly and accurately.
“All state employees who have not yet registered are urged to promptly visit the nearest KWSRRA registration centre to complete their enrollment.
“By following this directive, Kwara State is working to establish a more efficient and equitable system for its workforce and residents alike,” the statement added.
