A six-month extension of service for the newly appointed Head of Service of the Federal Capital Territory Civil Service Commission, Mr. Udo Samuel Atang has been approved by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Atang was sworn-in alongside nine permanent secretaries as the first Head of Service for the FCT Administration on March 18.
His extension of service was disclosed in a letter dated March 26 and signed by the Chief of Staff to the FCT Minister, Chidi Amadi.
In the letter, it was stated that the extension of Atang’s service would take effect from Wednesday, March 27, 2024, which also marked his 60 years of age.
According to the letter, the extended service would give the new Head of Service the opportunity to stabilise processes for the restructuring of the FCT Administration, occasioned by the inauguration of the FCT-CSC.
