The Permanent Secretary of the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA), Mr Olusade Adesola, over the weekend, embarked on a monitoring exercise for Confirmation Examination slated by the FCT Administration for 6,500 staff of the Federal Capital Territory Administration who have spent statutory two years as required in the Public Service.

The Permanent Secretary, who was represented by the Director in his Office, Mr Udo Samuel Atang described the exercise as a fundamental requirement for the career progression of Public Officers. He, therefore, charged participants to consider the exercise of utmost importance in their Public Service journey.

While reiterating the commitment of the FCT Administration to continue to apply the provision of the Public Service Rules in the day-to-day running of the Territory, Mr Adesola tasked Officers to see Public Service as a call to contribute their quota to the development of their fatherland.

The Permanent Secretary, who said the examination questions had been structured to reflect what the Officers are already used to, stressed the need for all Public Officers to be deep-rooted in the provision of Public Service Rules to be able to stand out.

He further remarked that the present leadership of the FCT Administration had invested an avalanche of resources in the development of the City’s infrastructure at all levels, even as he enjoined participants to play their civic obligations by reporting to security agencies anyone seen to be vandalizing public facilities.

The five Centres monitored include; Government Technical School, Garki, GSS Maitama, GSS Area 1O, GSS Wuse Zone 3 and GSS Wuse Zone 4.
