Head of the Civil Service of the Federation (HOCSF), Dr Folasade Yemi-Esan, has rated Nigeria’s civil service as the best in the world.
Yemi-Esan stated this on Saturday in Abuja during a sporting event organised for workers as part of activities to mark the 2024 Civil Service Week.
She said Nigerian civil servants are hardworking, intelligent, adding that, “they can look after their own health for greater productivity in the course of discharging their duties.
“You know I am always proud of civil and public servants because Nigeria has the best civil service in the world and I can say that confidently anywhere”.
She expressed satisfaction with the high turnout of the civil servants from various Ministries, Departments and Agencies at the events.
“I recall three or four years ago, we only used to have a handful of civil servants and today, the numbers that are here have increased tremendously.
“Thank you for a very good turnout today, you know this sporting activities, you don’t have to take it for granted because if we are not healthy, we can’t give the country the best that we have,” she stated.
