Nigeria’s President Bola Tinubu has ordered a full personnel audit and skills gap analysis across the Federal Civil Service to improve capacity and overall performance.
He gave the directive on Thursday, June 26, in Abuja during the maiden edition of the 2025 International Civil Service Week.
The President said it was essential to assign competent individuals to appropriate roles for an efficient and effective public service.
“We can only guarantee a high-performance culture by placing the right people in the right positions.
“To that end, I have authorised a full Personnel Audit and Skills Gap Analysis across the Federal Civil Service to build capacity,” he said.
He urged stakeholders to complete the exercise promptly to enable reforms and create a more agile, skilled and responsive civil service.
President Tinubu described the civil service as “the engine room” for delivering public goods and effective governance throughout Nigeria.
“Our civil servants are the quiet architects of stability, innovation, and public trust,” he added.
He said the audit was part of a wider plan to align the civil service with global standards and digital transformation.
