The Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun CON, has directed the Chairman, Civil Service Commission, to refund all administrative fees currently being charged in relation to the ongoing recruitment exercise into the civil service.
The directive from the governor was communicated via a statement issued by the Secretary to the State Government and addressed to the Chairman, Civil Service Commission, notwithstanding the fact that these are standard and historical fees that have been in place for decades.
These fees are charged by the Civil Service Commission on behalf of third-party independent examiners who administer and supervise the CBT Test and Centres.
The State Government has, as a gesture of good faith and in acknowledgement of the current economic situation in the country and also taking into consideration the ultimate aim of this recruitment exercise, i.e., to alleviate the sufferings of the citizens and create employment in the state, instructed the immediate refund of fees paid and a waiver of fees for any new applications.
