The Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun (CON), has directed the Chairman of the Civil Service Commission to refund all administrative fees currently being charged in relation to the ongoing recruitment exercise into the state’s civil service.

The directive from the Governor was communicated via a statement issued by the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Mr. Tokunbo Talabi, and addressed to the Chairman of the Civil Service Commission, notwithstanding the fact that these are standard and historical fees that have been in place for decades.

These fees are charged by the Civil Service Commission on behalf of third-party independent examiners who administer and supervise the CBT Test and centers.

The statement noted that the State Government, has, as a gesture of good faith and in acknowledgment of the current economic situation in the country, also taken into consideration the ultimate aim of the recruitment exercise, which is to alleviate the suffering of the citizens and create employment in the state, and instructed the immediate refund of fees paid along with a waiver for any new applications.
