The Head of Service of the Federation, Mr. Olumuyiwa Enitan, has announced that the Federal Civil Service is undergoing comprehensive reforms aimed at eliminating corruption, improving efficiency, and shifting the focus toward citizen-centric service delivery.

Enitan disclosed these developments during a valedictory ceremony held to mark the successful completion of the tenure of Prof. Kayode Adebowale, who served as the 13th Vice-Chancellor of the institution.

The reforms are described as both holistic and focused, with the primary objective of transforming the federal workforce into a more incorruptible and effective body. Enitan emphasized that these changes are designed to address longstanding issues of inefficiency within the civil service structure.

By targeting both corruption and operational inefficiency, the new initiatives seek to enhance the quality of public services provided to Nigerians. The Head of Service indicated that the goal is to ensure the civil service operates with greater accountability and responsiveness to the needs of the populace.

The announcement was made in the context of a formal event celebrating the end of Prof. Adebowale’s leadership, providing a platform for Enitan to outline the strategic direction of the federal bureaucracy.
