No the tenure of the chairman and about 5 commissioners of the commission will expire by the end of April or first week of May, 2017. They were appointed on 10th May 2012. Former president Jonathan submitted the name of the chairman and 7 commissioners to the senate on February 8, 2012. The senate confirmed the chairman and 5 commissioners, 2 commissioners were absent and they were appointed for a term of 5 years in the first instance on April 19, 2012. They were sworn in by the president on May 23, 2012.

I met someone last week who had collected his appt letter for FMS&T. The same guy even told me another person got his for BPP and they both had to part with some amount of money running into hundreds of thousands in Naira. I thought people have been called for interview but I'm surprised most people here are still talking about interview and shortlisting.
The nepotism in public service employment have remained the same despite the so-called change. Such a pity people have forgotten how the last advertised fcsc recruitment for bpp, environment, etc went down.
People who are getting the real jobs are not even applying online. Wish you guys the very best as you await shortlisting.

A Very Big Lie

And I stand to gain what exactly by telling a "very big lie" on a faceless forum as this? Money, Fame, Applause or mere likes? You must be a very big idiot. Next time, find a mature and sensible way to discredit a piece of information, better still, provide your own valid info to counter another's.

I did not ask anyone to lose hope or quit waiting to be shortlisted. I only narrated my experience and this is not my first. I have seen it happen with at NUC, NPC and few other agencies. Infact, some have collected appt letters at FIRS and have resumed duty weeks before the general recruitment even commenced online. Whether or not you believe doesn't change the fact that it's happening, just do not jump on my post to call me a liar. I won't be so nice next time.

It should be in the email you provided if you successfully applied.

@Yaasir any info about the recruitment, your info are 95% reliable

Applicants are trooping to the National Assembly to obtain notes from lawmakers to Federal establishments for what is tagged ‘automatic employment’, investigation by our correspondents revealed.

Daily Trust on Sunday reports that at the moment only few Federal establishments including, the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR), National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) and the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) are recruiting but hundreds of applicants have secured employment in many federal agencies through the influence of the lawmakers.

It was gathered that the strategy works more in establishments where secret or underground recruitments, popularly known as ‘replacement’ are being conducted.

Our Correspondents observed that it has become a daily phenomenon at the National Assembly to see applicants lobby to see a lawmaker for a cover letter.

The notes, according to beneficiaries, are often written on lawmakers’ letter headed paper.

Shedding light on the trend, a beneficiary, Ibrahim Sani said the notes are more honoured when written by Chairman of a committee performing oversight on an organization.

He said if the note is written by a ranking lawmaker, the next thing you see is, your employment letter.

“The lawmakers only give the note to those they know but If you are not known by them, they will tell you to go and look for organization that is employing

“Depending on your relationship or who introduced you to the lawmaker, in addition to the note, a phone call would be placed to the head of the organization concerned to ensure the communication is honoured,” he said.

An unemployed graduate, Fatima Raji, said two of her friends have recently secured employment through notes by a federal lawmaker.

“It is working. My two friends who were lucky to get notes from a Senator are now working in a Federal Tertiary Institution in Kaduna. No advertisement was placed, they call it replacement,” she said.

Another applicant (name withheld) who spoke to one of our correspondent at the office of a lawmaker on Thursday said the struggle for lawmakers’ notes was because of its efficacy.

The applicant who has two masters from Bayero University Kano (BUK) said many applicants have secured employment through the process.

“I have to come here (National Assembly) because all my efforts to get employment have failed. I know people who have gotten employment through this method.

“Take note, it is not all the applicants who are struggling for the lawmakers’ notes that are not qualified. Look at my case, I have two masters and yet I’m unemployed,” he said, urging the federal government to step up its employment creation drive.

Speaking on the trend, a senator who does not want to be named said there was nothing wrong in it, saying “It is not peculiar to us. Is it illegal? Or are we collecting money from the applicants? It is not illegal and we are not collecting money, rather we give money to the applicants. I have written notes to many and I will continue doing it because it is not wrong,” he said.

Another source told Daily Trust that it is true that hundreds of people, especially those from lawmakers’ constituencies, troop to their offices for such notes for jobs.

The lawmaker said, however, that in most cases, the notes are not honoured by the relevant agencies they are addressed to, adding that the act could not be said to be outright illegal.

“It’s everywhere in the system. It’s prevalent everywhere. In most cases, they don’t honour the letters. It was more prevalent in the past. In fact, you would not get a job in the past without such notes.

Asked about the legality of such notes, the lawmaker who did not want to be named said: “I don’t know if it’s illegal or not. Before employing people, they request for indigene certificate. So, it’s not wrong if someone from your constituency comes to you for such a note, that’s an attestation letter.

“Our own is even better, but I don’t really know if it’s wrong or not. You see civil servants and CEOs, they are worst because they don’t have to write letters. They make sure that where they come from gets most [of the jobs],” the lawmaker said.

Another lawmaker said in most cases, the notes came about because of imbalance in the system as some zones are not well represented in some key agencies.

“There are many agencies like that. Places like the police, NCC and the rest. Once you go there, you just see that there’s no balance. It’s just the CEOs that use their discretions to employ their people,” he said.

A lawmaker from the North, who did not want to be named, told Daily Trust on Sunday that it is an irony that Nigerians would term them as thieves milking the country dry but would still turn to them for notes to assist them in securing jobs.

“When it comes to the issue of looking for jobs, constituents rush to senators and Reps, but when it comes to the issue of insulting us, the same constituents are in the forefront. The way the whole world is looking at us as thieves, ordinarily nobody is supposed to come to us for such things,” the lawmaker said.

A member of the House of Representatives from Jigawa State, Mohammed Sani Zorro (APC, Jigawa) told Daily Trust that it was the corruption in the civil service that led to most of the problem.

Zorro, who chairs the House committee on IDPs, Refugees and Northeast Initiatives, said: “For example, at the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN), 98.9 percent of those employed before the last six months or so were from a particular part of the country, that’s lecturers, management staff, cleaners etc. It was when they moved to Abuja a few months ago that the vacancies for three zones came up.

“The corruption in the civil service system has distorted everything. Everyone that lands in a position, he sees it like he presides over a fiefdom. He ensures that he populates the place with his people. Employment is on the basis of whom you know from the presidency, ministries, National Assembly and state government houses. These are the people that decide who should be employed and vice versa.

“Remember, when FIRS opened its portal for employment recently, they had hundreds of thousands to the ridiculous extent that state governors visited FIRS chairman to give him their own names. Emirs and chiefs were doing same. It was so bad that the chairman was no longer seeing emirs and chiefs off each time they came,” he said.

Asked if it was true that some agencies’ chief executives are biased in employment, Zorro said: “I know of some MDAs whose CEOs were influenced by businessmen, especially directors of finance. Those functions were based on appointments from outside. You’ll see an ordinary banker employed as an executive director.

“I’m also on the FOI committee. FOI is also about institutional reforms. There was a time when the appointment of permanent secretaries and directors was based on letters by chiefs, governors and other influential people to the extent that the loyalty of the appointees was to the emirs and chiefs and the other influential people.

“Government needs to beam its searchlight on MDAs in order to rid them of such practices. These kinds of things lead to social injustice and mass frustration among young people.

“As chairman of IDPs committees, those who come from states like Borno, Yobe and Adamawa, at some point, they were discriminated against simply because they come from such unsecured areas. That’s discrimination. People were being employed in the Niger Delta under Jonathan without discrimination or stigmatization.

“So, the public sector requires complete overhaul. There are cases where people were promoted to positions that they didn’t deserve. The same thing happens with postings,” he said.

Contacted, the spokesperson of the Senate, Senator Aliyu Sabi Abdullahi said, “ How I wish it is true, if it is I would have written 1, 000 for my constituents so that they can be employed.”

However, Sabi while lamenting the level of unemployment in the country said, “I will stop at nothing to knock at any door to secure employment for my constituents through legal means.”

Also when contacted, the spokesman of the House of Representatives, Abdulrazak Namdas (APC, Adamawa) told Daily Trust that as representatives of the people, they have to assist their constituents with such notes when necessary.

“When you represent the people, they believe you can help in solving their problems. So, it’s only natural that lawmakers would want to assist their constituents. Giving notes to our constituents is a way of helping them.

“That is why it would have been good that any time there are job opportunities, the people’s representatives should be notified since we represent their interests,” he said.

However, Namdas added that, “Despite the fact that lawmakers would want people to get jobs, they are cautious of giving out notes in this era of change.”
