Goodnews for all civil servant as Reps take drastic decision

It has been decided by the House of Representatives to look into the Federal Civil Service’s promotion stagnation from 2013 to 2023.

Rep. Salman Idris, the Deputy Chairman of the House Committee on Agric Colleges and Institutions in Abuja, made the motion that led to this.

According to him, promotions continue to be a means of advancement for civil servants and a source of inspiration for increased output.

Idris lamented the constant stagnation in government agency, department, and ministry promotions.

He claimed that as a result, there was a loss of service delivery, a reduction in highly specialised skills, poor performance and productivity, employee unrest, corruption, and low morale.

“The menace of promotion stagnation in the civil service calls for urgent attention and intervention of this hallowed chamber if the policies and programmes of government must be achieved,” he said.

He stated that the civil service continued to be the government’s engine room and that comprehensive reform was necessary to promote global best practices.

He went on to say that it was crucial to take recommendations and promotions seriously when they came up.

According to Idis, some federal servants who were eventually promoted following the necessary examination mandated by civil service regulations received conceptual advancements but not financial ones.

He continued by saying that MDAs frequently included funding for these ongoing expenses in their annual budgets.

Every promotion stagnation, he claimed, would have an impact on the officer’s career.

He went on to say that every government servant was expected to reach their career apex within 35 years of entering active duty or by the time they reached the age of 60 for retirement.

The house decided that the Federal Civil Service Commission’s promotion stagnation should be looked at by the committee on public sector and institutional reforms.
