Reform: FCTA To Train Workers On New Civil Service Plan

Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA), through its Reform Coordination and Service Improvement Department, has commenced the training of 1500 members of Staff on the new Federal Civil Service Strategy and implementation plan 2021 – 2025.

The director of Human Resource FCTA, Mallam Mohammed Bashir stated this at the maiden capacity building of 150 FCTA staff on the new Civil Service Plan in Abuja.

Bashir said the policy was an Initiative of the Head of Service of the Federation, which the FCTA through the Reform Coordination and Service Improvement has fully embraced.

“The training is targeted at bringing all workers up to speed with the new policy across the Secretariats, Department And Agencies, SDAs, of FCTA towards enhancing effective service delivery in the territory for national development.

“It is a training to make our staff acquainted with the new Civil Service reforms for effective service in FCT. The training cuts across all cadres from level 12-16 in all SDAs, mainly Admin Officers. The reform seeks to achieve a new phase of civil service, where the practice of analog civil service will be gone.

“The Civil Service is the bedrock of every nation. With this reform, each staff within the system will be given a schedule and will be assessed based on the new form of performance management system which was drawn from the Standard Operation Procedure. And once there’s any problem, someone will be held responsible. By this, Civil servants will now own the project and people will put in their best for Nigeria to succeed,” Bashir said.

Also, the acting director of Reform Coordination and Service Improvement, Dr. Jumai Ahmadu, who analysed the two minutes video, stressed the need for all civil servants to move with the global tide of embracing technology and get themselves acquainted with the utilisation of computers for proper record keeping.

Ahmadu, who stressed the place of hard work and reward system for outstanding civil servants said the government has mechanisms in place as witnessed in the recently organized Civil Service Week where some staff were duly rewarded.
