Beyond salaries, pensions and gratuities are paid promptly, easing the long-standing pains of retirees who devoted their productive years to the state. These are not mere statistics; they are lifelines that have rekindled hope across households.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDr. Onumoko\u2019s accounting acumen has also ensured that contractors are paid as and when due, restoring credibility to government commitments and stimulating economic activity. This consistency has played a pivotal role in Kogi\u2019s emergence as a construction hub, with infrastructure projects springing up across the state, roads, public buildings, and critical facilities that are reshaping the physical and economic landscape.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat sets Onumoko apart is her rare ability to internalize the financial vision of Governor Usman Ododo and translate it seamlessly into actionable, sustainable outcomes. She has mastered his development-driven financial philosophy and broken it down into practical systems that work. The result is a Governor whose people-oriented agenda is backed by solid fiscal management, making him a history-making Chief Servant of Kogi State.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yet, her impact extends beyond spreadsheets and balance sheets. Her accounting prowess is complemented by remarkable political sagacity. Among her people, she has emerged as a rallying point, a leader whose voice carries weight, whose counsel inspires trust, and whose presence commands respect. In a political environment often starved of sincerity, she represents steadiness, courage, and purpose.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Her generosity of spirit and uncommon courage have further elevated her standing, endearing her to many and earning her a reputation as a political leader of repute. She leads not by noise, but by results; not by theatrics, but by substance.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Kogi State Accountant General, Dr. Habibat Onumoko, has been commended for restoring workers confidence through prompt payment of salaries. &nbsp; &nbsp; Earnest Mayowa, a Public Affairs Analyst, x-rayed the achievements of Onumoko, in&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":10453,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10452","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/beadysword.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10452","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/beadysword.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/beadysword.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beadysword.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beadysword.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10452"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/beadysword.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10452\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10454,"href":"https:\/\/beadysword.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10452\/revisions\/10454"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beadysword.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10453"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/beadysword.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10452"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beadysword.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10452"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beadysword.com.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10452"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
