‘No Mass Recruitment Yet Into Osun State Civil Service’

Osun state government has said mass recruitment into the state Civil Service has not commenced as being wrongly assumed with the on -going sales of employment forms by the Civil Service Commission

A release made available by the Commissioner for

Information and Public Enlightenment, Oluomo Kolapo Alimi stated that the sales of forms by the state Civil Service Commission, is a normal official routine.

He called on members of the public, particularly employment seekers not to in any way misconstrue the sale of forms to be a scheme by the Ademola Adeleke led administration for mass recruitment into the state civil service.

“We advise those, who by now ,must have collected the forms to keep them  jealously in their possession pending when an official approval for mass  recruitment exercise may be officially unfolded to the public.

“Again, the government wishes to reiterate that the only approved recruitment drive currently going on in Osun state is the sale and issuance of forms for the engagement of  additional 5000 teachers and 250 education officers.

“The aim, which is in accordance with the recent approval granted by the Osun State Executive Council, is to fill the existing vacancies in the state’s teaching service  in order to strengthen the hitherto moribund education sector.

“Therefore, If the Government wishes to embark on a general mass recruitment exercise into the Civil Service, an official announcement, via officially designated media channels, would be released to the public”, the statement emphasized.’’
