In continuation of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s commitment to improve and sustain effective delivery of services, guided by a top echelon of the Public Service with the appropriate and relevant Twenty First Century skills, the Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation has commenced the three stage assessment for appointing new Permanent Secretaries on Monday November 11th 2024, with a written examination. This was contained in a statement signed by Eno Olotu (Mrs) Mnipr, Head, Information and Public Relations, which reads in part: “19 of the 38 eligible Directors who sat for the examinations, have scaled through this first stage and would be participating in the second stage, which will test their competence in the use of Information Communication and Technology (ICT) in conducting government business, on Wednesday 13th November, 2024. This three staged exercise follows the established tradition of a transparent and rigorous process, deliberately made so to ensure the very best among the candidates are appointed.
“Successful candidates would then proceed to the final stage to appear before a carefully constituted panel of top bureaucrats and representatives of the organised private sector, on Friday 15th November, 2024.
“This process would culminate in Mr. President’s appointment from the best candidates representing the eight States of Abia, Bayelsa, Ebonyi, Enugu, Gombe, Kaduna, Kebbi and Rivers – where vacancies exist.
“The Head of the Civil Service of the Federation congratulates all the 38 candidates and appreciates the continued support of the Nigerian public in entrenching meritocracy in career progression, in the Civil Service”, it also added..
