The statement noted that the appointments were made upon the recommendation of the Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation after a diligent selection process to ensure the most qualified candidates were chosen.

“The Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation recommended that the new permanent secretaries be appointed after diligent selection,” the statement read in part.

The appointees hail from diverse states across the nation, including Abia, Bayelsa, Ebonyi, Enugu, Gombe, Kebbi, Rivers, and Kaduna.
