The Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, Mrs Esther Didi Walson-Jack, has told newly promoted directors that their new position marks the beginning of more challenges.
She further charged the new directors to let their leadership inspire confidence among their subordinates and stakeholders.
She stated this on Friday in Abuja at a dinner in honour of newly appointed directors, reiterating their critical role of being at the forefront of driving the needed civil service reforms, especially as it concerns the actualisation of the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Tinubu.
Walson-Jack charged the 332 directors that their promotion heralds “the beginning of more challenging and fulfilling part where your influence and impact will shape the future of our civil service.”
She said further: “As newly promoted directors, you have reached the pinnacle that reflects not just your achievements but the trust and expectation placed upon you by the Federal Civil Service and the nation.”
She charged them to rededicate themselves to the principles of good governance, transparency, efficiency and accountability.
“I urge you therefore to embrace this opportunity for growth and development. I would like to inspire you to reach new heights in your career,” she added.
Walson-Jack urged the directors to foster an environment of collaboration, inclusivity and continuous learning, assuring them of her firm support.
Earlier on Thursday, the Head of the Civil Service unveiled three groundbreaking initiatives aimed at transforming Nigeria’s civil service as part of the activities of her first 100 days in office under the theme “Marching to Greatness: Celebrating 100 Days.”
