Didi Walson-Jack, the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, has announced an online portal to intensify the accessibility of government circulars for civil servants.
Walson-Jack who spoke at the launch event in Abuja on Wednesday, described circulars as an important tools for governance and administration within the civil service
She stated, “Circulars provide direction, clarify policies, and ensure that decisions are communicated consistently across the Service. However, a recurring challenge has been the accessibility and retention of these critical documents, especially as time passes and administrations change. This has, at times, hindered institutional memory and disrupted seamless service delivery.”
The Head of Service emphasized that the new compilation of circulars would improve transparency, efficiency, and effectiveness in the civil service.
“This online compendium of Civil and Public Service Circulars will significantly enhance the civil service’s efficiency, transparency, and effectiveness, directly supporting our goals of a more responsive Service. The compendium will improve access and reduce administrative bottlenecks, advancing the overarching goals of efficiency, accountability, and improved service delivery,” she explained.
She also explained that the initiative reflects a commitment to modernising governance.
“This compilation is more than a technological upgrade; it is a declaration of our determination to adapt, innovate, and lead. It reflects our belief that a modern Civil Service is not just about what we do but how we do it. It demonstrates our unwavering commitment to transparency, accountability, and excellence in governance,” Walson-Jack added.
