Buhari Approves 2,250 EFCC Jobs
President Buhari
President Muhammadu
Buhari has approved 2, 250 job slots for the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC). The agency is expected to recruit 750 new employees per
annum over three years.
The anti-graft agency
in collaboration with the Federal Character Commission (FCC) has started the
recruitment test nationwide based on the zonal offices of the EFCC in order to
create a level-playing ground for candidates.
The commission was also said to have resorted to zonal basis in order to
avoid a repeat of the stampede which affected a similar exercise in the
Nigerian Immigration Service.
The President approved the slots to increase the commission’s number of
core and support staff since the anti-graft war is moving to the next stage.
It was however learnt that some highly-placed Nigerians want the
recruitment to hold in Abuja so as to be able to wield influence.
A document obtained by our correspondent indicated that the EFCC has
written to the Federal Character Commission (FCC) and obtained approval to go
ahead with the recruitment.
The document showed that each zonal recruitment test is being coordinated
by a Director of EFCC, two commissioners from the EFCC and other top staff of
the anti-graft agency.
A source, who spoke in confidence, said: “In order to be fair to all
candidates, we are conducting the recruitment process at our zonal offices and
after selecting the best, the relevant desks at the headquarters will further
evaluate their performance based on our tight regulations.
“At the end of the
day, the best candidates will proceed to the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) in
Kaduna for training.
