Leadership is a trait that is often defined by actions rather than words. And in a world where self-serving boss-people seem to dominate the headlines, finding a leader who truly puts the interests of others first can be a rare treasure. One such leader is Sani Magaji Tambawal, the clerk to the National Assembly.
Tambawal, has displayed time and time again his dedication to the welfare of the staff under his leadership. As the head of bureaucracy in the National Assembly, he understands the importance of a motivated and well-supported workforce in achieving the goals of any organisation. Under his watch, the staff at the National Assembly have enjoyed a higher quality of attention and care.
One notable aspect of Sani Magaji Tambawal’s leadership style is his unwavering commitment to honoring agreements, particularly with the union body: Parliamentary Staff Association of Nigeria (PASAN). It is no secret that misunderstandings between management and union can often impede progress.
However, through his exceptional qualities, such as fear of God and respect for agreements, Mr Tambawal has fostered an environment of trust and cooperation between the National Assembly management and PASAN since he assumed office as the CNA.
In a work environment where broken promises and unfulfilled commitments have become all too common, Tambawal stands out as a role model. His commitment to honoring the signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the National Assembly management and the union is commendable and sets a precedent for accountability and integrity in leadership.
The significance of honoring agreements cannot be overstated. It not only promotes a positive work environment but also sets the foundation for a harmonious labour-management relationship. His adherence to the MoU demonstrates his understanding of this crucial aspect and his genuine concern for the well-being of those he leads.
Leadership is not solely defined by the ability to make decisions or hold positions of power. True leadership lies in the ability to inspire others, to prioritise their needs and to work tirelessly towards the betterment of their lives. He exemplifies this selfless leadership through his actions, demonstrating that a leader can truly make a difference.
Tambawal’s unwritten synopsis of selfless leadership is a testament to his character and dedication. As the Clerk to the National Assembly, he has shown unmatched commitment to the welfare of the staff under his leadership. His exceptional qualities, like his fear of God and respect for agreements, have fostered an environment of trust and cooperation. That is why he stands as a beacon of hope, reminding us that true leaders prioritize the welfare of others above all else.
In no doubtful affirmation, the staff of National Assembly are confident of better days ahead under this management ably led by Mr Sani Magaji Tambawal as the clerk to the National Assembly.
