According to the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, who read their citations, the ceremony marked the culmination of a weeks-long prequalification exercise for directors by the Office of the Head of Civil Service of the Federation.


He said: “Mr President, six persons have fulfilled the conditions as permanent secretaries after a selection exercise recently conducted for directors.
