We will use this needed platform to discuss it once and for all and put the matter to rest. We will discuss their work schedule and make clarifications about it,’’ he said.
According to Mohammed, apart from the Heads of Service, relevant permanent secretaries, directors and deputy directors in 36 states of the federation were among top government functionaries expected to attend the conference.
