The Civil Defence, Fire, Immigration and Prisons Services Board has approved the promotion of 2,749 officers and men of the Nigerian Prisons Service to various ranks.
The beneficiaries are those on Consolidated Paramilitary Salary Structure 09-16 who passed the recently conducted promotion examination and those that were stagnated on the Inspectorate rank for several years.
A statement by the Nigeria Prisons Service Public Relations Officer, Francis Enebore, in Abuja on Monday, said junior staff who acquired additional qualifications for advancement to officers’ cadre were also promoted.
It said that the Controller-General of Prisons, Dr. Peter Ekpendu, congratulated the officers and enjoined them to work assiduously to justify their new ranks.
Similarly, the Board Chairman of the Federal Road Safety Commission, Mr. Felix Chukwu, has identified hard work and dedication to duties as critical to the Corps’ corporate goals of attaining the status of a world class organisation by 2020.
He made this declaration after the approval of promotion of 1,026 Assistant Route Commanders to their next rank of Deputy Route Commanders by the Board.
According to him, the promotion was “a culmination of our drive to reward excellence and hard work, in line with our corporate goals to attain the status of a world class organisation.”
Chukwu said the promotion followed a rigorous, transparent and fair process and charged the newly promoted officers to put in their best by adding value to the system through the projection and proclamation of road safety ideals in their respective areas of responsibility.
The Board Chairman thanked the Minister of Defence and the Chief of Army Staff for their corporate support to the Corps in the area of capacity building, stressing that training and re-training process has remained paramount in the sustained efforts of the FRSC to engender best road culture in the country.
