PRESIDENT Bola Tinubu has given his approval to the appointment of twelve people to the Federal Civil Service Commission (FCSC).
According to a statement issued by President Tinubu’s spokesperson, Ajuri Ngelale, today, the nomination of the members to the Commission is subject to approval by the Nigerian Senate.
He stated that, if confirmed, the new FCSC leadership is likely to begin work on November 30, 2023, following the end of the existing Federal Civil Service Commission Chairman’s and membership’s tenure on November 29, 2023.
Ngelale went on to say that the President expects the new FCSC leadership to competently facilitate the transformation, reorientation, and digitization of the Federal Bureaucracy to enable, rather than stifle, growth and enhanced private sector participation in the development of the Nigerian economy, in full compliance with his administration’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
