Nigerian govt admits some civil servants incompetent

 

The federal government has announced plans to purge the civil service of incompetent hands.

Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, Folasade Yemi-Esan, said there’s now a strict system to employ only qualified persons.

Yemi-Esan spoke at the April edition of the Bureau of Public Service Reforms (BPSR’s) lunch-time reform seminar on Thursday in Abuja.

NAN reports that the HoCS was represented by Emmanuel Meribole, the Permanent Secretary, Service Policies and Strategies Office.

Yemi-Esan stated that the civil service was no longer a welfare institution where people were recruited to check unemployment.

She said the new reform programme, Federal Civil Service Strategy and Implementation Plan (FCSSIP) 2017-2020, was derived from the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan (ERGP).

The official added that it was in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and it will address economic, social and environmental sustainability issues.
