Civil service commission begins regularisation of FCTA staff appointments
The Federal Capital Territory’s Civil Service Commission has begun regularising staff appointments in the FCT Administration and the Federal Capital Development Authority.
The civil service head, Udo Atang, said on Wednesday at the commencement of the exercise in Abuja that the move was to ensure all staff’s accurate data.
Mr Atang described regularisation as a “critical” exercise that forms the bedrock of the new commission.
He pointed out that all the staff were holding letters of appointment from various agencies, departments, area councils, and the defunct Ministry of FCT and FCDA, among others.
The holders of these letters, he said, had raised issues of discrimination based on letters of appointment.
According to him, the exercise and the gazette by the commission that will come after will give all staff a sense of identity.
“The essence of this regularisation is to ensure that staff are properly documented,” he stated. “You will now have letters that will now qualify you as a bonafide staff of the FCT Civil Service Commission.”
The head of service, who appealed for the full cooperation of the workers, directed that a list of all staff on the course, study leave, leave of absence, and other related permissions be compiled and submitted.
He added that the list should be compiled with grade level, designation and record of service, including approvals.
Mr Atang commended the FCT Minister Nyesom Wike for his doggedness and commitment to implementing the provisions of the FCT CSC Act 2018.
Noting Mr Wike’s support and love for the FCT workers, the head of service urged the workers to reciprocate the minister’s uncommon gesture by being dedicated and committed to their respective duties.
Also, the commission’s chairman, Emeka Ezeh, stressed that part of its responsibilities was to appoint, promote, and discipline all FCTA and FCDA workers.
Mr Ezeh also stressed the need for the workers to be more committed to discharge their responsibilities.
