Chairperson of the commission Mrs Joan Ayo who disclosed this while receiving the new Head of the Civil Service of the Federation Mr Danladi Kifasi to her office, said the disabled have been given appointments, but a place must be created for them to utilise their skills.
Ayo said “They have been given appointments; some of them regrettably cannot fit into the system. But we try to ensure that anyone given a job has something to do otherwise it will be frustrating to the commission and the affected person.”
She assured Kifasi that the commission will continue to work harmoniously with his office to ensure that government policies are implemented successfully and that productivity is enhanced, stressing that only qualified candidates will be recruited into the civil service.
On his part, the head of service, who also echoed the need for collaboration between his office and the civil service commission, stated that civil service rules would soon be reviewed and that training would be given priority to boost capacity of the workers.
