The Federal Civil Service anthem has been reinstated by Didi Walson-Jack, Head of the Federation’s Civil Service.
The purpose of this according to Walson-Jack, is to inspire government employees and motivate changes within the agency.
The anthem was first performed in 2018, during a meeting with media executives in Abuja, the Head of Service emphasized the need of the civil service implementing President Bola Tinubu’s renewed hope agenda, according to a transcript that was issued on Tuesday.
“You will recall that the office has the federal civil service strategy and implementation 2021-2025 and that is the plan that we are still driving. However, we have resolved to bring on board creativity and innovation to accelerate that plan.
“The six pillars which represent the ongoing reforms require adequate coverage so that the implementation can be fast tracked so that the federal civil service delivers on the Renewed Hope Agenda.
“I want to use this opportunity to appreciate President Bola Tinubu for the support especially as regards the ongoing reform. We have quite a few things we are working but I must say what we are actually looking forward to is our 100 days in office.
“The civil service anthem has been reintroduced to drive the reform. It is expected that the anthem will be sung by all civil and public servants and indeed Nigerians. And it will be an anthem that will encourage every public servant to imbibe the lyrics of the anthem which is just saying to us that we must be efficient, productive, incorruptible, and citizen-centered.”
