The Head of the Civil Service of the Federation (HCSF), Mrs. Didi Esther Walson-Jack, has commended the Governor of Borno State, Prof. Babagana Umara Zulum, for his exceptional leadership and reform-driven governance, which continue to enhance public service delivery and foster sustainable development.
Speaking during a courtesy visit on the governor, the HCSF described the visit to the State as insightful and memorable, just as she expressed deep appreciation to Governor Zulum for the warm hospitality extended to her delegation and for his steadfast partnership with the Federal Civil Service.
She praised the Governor’s visionary leadership and reform-driven governance to enhance public service delivery and promote sustainable development across the State.
The HCSF particularly commended the Zulum-led administration for its deliberate investment in capacity building for Civil Servants.
She noted that the structured training programmes, institutional reforms, and emphasis on performance management in Borno State are in strong alignment with the priorities of the Federal Civil Service Strategy and Implementation Plan 2021–2025 (FCSSIP25).
She further applauded Borno State’s active participation in key national reform initiatives, including the 2025 Civil Service Week held in Abuja, the Institutional Strengthening Retreat in Katsina, and the maiden International Civil Service Conference (ICSC) declared open by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
These efforts, she said, reflect a firm commitment to building a modern, efficient, and people-oriented Civil Service.
