Chris Ngige reported the matter, upon re-appointment as minister in August 2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c Yes, there was an illegal recruitment perpetrated between May 29, 2019 and August 2019 when the President dissolved his first term cabinet and Senator Ngige temporarily out of office.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, upon re-appointment and resumption of duties as the Minister of Labour and Employment in August 2019, Sen. Ngige discovered the illegality and promptly raised it at the Federal Executive Council.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dThis also necessitated a preliminary investigation by the office of the Head of Service of the Federation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c The minister subsequently empaneled an Internal Investigative Committee in the ministry to unearth how 752 senior and 532 junior staff members were recruited in the ministry without Ministerial and Head of Civil Service of the Federation approval, as stipulated in the extant circular on recruitment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c Unfortunately, the activities of the Committee was stalled by the then <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/broadnews\/2022\/04\/11\/ganduje-appoints-new-head-of-service-4-permanent-secretary\/\">Permanent Secretary<\/a> who claimed that the ICPC had stepped into the matter,\u201dhe said. .<\/p>\n<p>He added that, the onus, therefore, lies squarely on the ICPC to break the syndicate which the minister appropriately reported first at the Federal Executive Council and subsequently taken over by the ICPC since two and half years ago.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c The ministry wishes to further note that every recruitment, especially of senior civil servants , passes through the Federal Civil Service Commission, in fact, solely authorized by it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dThe ICPC should therefore expand its investigation into the Federal Civil Service Commission to break the syndicate, a commendable step in this direction, no doubt,\u201dhe said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ministry of Labour and Employment has clarified its position in the case of the illegal recruitment raised in the establishment.
