The AIG Imoukhuede Foundation on Thursday presented a cheque of N500,000 each to 40 civil servants who emerged as recipients of the Presidential Public Service Merit Award, in June this year.
The cheque was presented to the awardees by the Head of Service of the Federation, Folasade Yemi-Esan, and Chairman of AIG Imoukhuede Foundation, Mr. AIG Imoukhuede.
While the cheque presentation was still on, some of the civil servants who had been honoured confirmed the receipt of the half a million naira cash alert.
In his remark, Yemi-Esan, thanked the AIG Imoukhuede Foundation for putting smiles on civil servants’ faces.
According to her, motivating civil servants will spur them to perform better.
Yemi-Esan admonished the award recipients to use the cash reward they received wisely.
“Use the money you have just received wisely. Invest in something profitable,” she urged them.
Earlier, Mr. Imoukhuede, promised to make the event an annual ritual as a way of immortalizing his late mother, who was a dedicated civil servant at a time.
