37 Directors Fail Exam For FG’s Permanent Secretary Jobs

No fewer than 74 directors applied for the 10 vacant positions of permanent secretaries declared by the Office of the Head of Civil Service of the Federation.

It was gathered that 37 directors scored 50 per cent and above in the qualifying examination, while 37 scored below 50 per cent, which led to their disqualification.

The other 37 candidates passed the examination and have been invited for an “ICT proficiency test” on Thursday in Abuja.

The office of head of service said the highest score was 74 percent while the least score was 26 percent.

In a circular, Olusola Idowu, on behalf of the examination committee in the office of the head of civil service, said the ICT test would take place at the National Intelligence Agency (NIA).

“The invited candidates are to note that the ICT proficiency test will take place on Thursday, February 24, 2022 by 8am at the Muhammadu Buhari Centre, National Intelligence Agency, Asokoro,” the newspaper quoted Idowu as saying in the circular with reference number HCSF/PS/CMO/154/I/70.

The exercise was meant to fill vacancies for solicitor-general of the federation and permanent secretaries retiring in 2022.

The head of service had said those eligible to take the test must have attained the position of substantive directors on salary grade level 17 on or before January 1, 2020,

Also, they must have updated their records on the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System verification portal.
