In a significant shake-up, 19 out of 38 directors
seeking permanent secretary roles in the Federal Civil Service failed the
initial qualifying examination.
The exam, held on Monday, November 11, 2024, was part
of a rigorous selection process initiated by the Office of the Head of Civil
Service of the Federation (OHCSF) to fill vacancies in eight states.
A memo signed by Dr. Emmanuel Meribole on behalf of
the examination committee, and published on Tuesday, detailed the outcome.
Eno Olotu, Director of Press at OHCSF, commented on
the process: “Of the 38 eligible directors who sat for the exam, 19 have passed
the first stage and will move on to the second stage, which will assess their
competency in using Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in
government operations on Wednesday, November 13, 2024.”
According to Olotu, the selection process is thorough
and includes three stages aimed at ensuring only the most qualified candidates
advance.
The final stage, set for Friday, November 15, 2024,
will see the remaining candidates face a panel of high-ranking civil servants
and private sector representatives.
