EFCC’s DEROGATORY RECRUITMENT EXERCISE; A DEHUMANIZING PROCESS STRIPING WOMEN OF DIGNITY

For a government that rode to power on the wave of ‘change’ to have any of its agencies engage in the lunacy that unfolded in the recently conducted recruitment exercise of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is an indication of the sordid situation we are in.

A narrative of the experience of one of those who sadly had to undergo this harrowing spectacle will throw more light on how low some officials of state saddled with certain responsibilities have descended in the course of the performance of assigned duties; an exhibition of a skewed system handed over to perverts to run.

A young lady who contacted Moji Delano Blog had written the test a few months back in Lagos with several others and made the shortlist for the next level of selection process. She had spent an entire day at the test venue in Ikoyi but didn't start to write until 1.00am! How ridiculous!!! Having made the shortlist, she was contacted and required to show up for the next level of the recruitment process which is the physical fitness test level and the venue stated was Kaduna. Apart from the risk and trauma of getting to Kaduna for the fitness test, she and five other ladies were shocked to discover that the supposed test entails being compelled to strip naked in front of the recruitment coordinator for physical examination by a male operative of the EFCC who introduced himself (in a thick Hausa accent) as 'Salleh'.

The candidates were told it is a mandatory procedure and whomever was not comfortable with it can take a walk and forfeit the selection. As if to parade nude before total strangers was not enough humiliation, the male officer(supposed examiner) had groping sessions freely touching the candidates inappropriately under the guise of physical fitness examination.

In fact to underline their uncompromising posture on the "no striping no selection" , a lady who obviously could neither comprehend nor process the absurdity in the strange process refused to strip and was outrightly disqualified, and not allowed to proceed and denied access to speak to a superior level officer.

The question then is, where and how on earth is this permissible and done in 21st century Nigeria of 'change'

It is grating to imagine in this age and time that young women will be subjected to such embarrassing and demeaning experience in the name of screening and selection process to engage for employment. It is difficult to imagine and believe this is the standard procedure of recruitment and it is only rational to assume the process has been deliberately manipulated by sexual perverts whose molestation of these young women will impact negatively on the ego and confidence of these young ladies.

It is not only unfair but the zenith of irresponsibility on the part of these sick examiner(s) to subject these female candidates who have successfully passed through universities, taken and passed recruitment test on merit to this kind of dehumanizing selection procedure; this is perversity unimaginable unfolding before our eyes...

Consequently, the following questions become imperative;

Why was a male officer assigned to examine female candidates for physical fitness?

Why would female candidates be mandated/compelled to take off their clothing to stark nudity in front of male officers?

When has the greedy eyes and groping fingers of anyone become a machinery to ascertain the physical fitness of another?

Is this the approved human resource selection process in the EFCC?

If the answer to (4) is in the affirmative, who approved this kind of process?
Has there been any kind of psychiatric evaluation for those officers involved in this infamy prior to this time?

What kind of country is this?

The afore stated are questions that are in need of urgent, reasonable and adequate answers by the EFCC Chairman, Ibrahim Mangu.

Nigeria cannot afford to have an agency as vital as the EFCC harbour sexual felons in its fold or employed supposedly fighting financial crimes. We owe ourselves and our generation this responsibility to protect our young ones from retards in uniform or position who eke satisfaction from the trauma of others.

We don't know who else is suffering this humiliation in the other centers nationwide hence the need to unearth the perpetrators of this dastard act and make them face the full wrath of all known laws they might have infringed on to serve as deterrent to other lechers who sexually harass and molest young women.

The time is now for civil society, advocacy and right groups to rise up and tackle this unreasonable, irresponsible and unacceptable conduct.

Enough is enough.

Update:


When contacted on this issue, the EFCC spokesperson, Mr. Wilson Uwujaren in his response said

"There was no inappropriate conduct by any official during the exercise. The physical fitness and medical tests were conducted by officers from the Nigerian Air Force Hospital who are well trained and adhere to the relevant code of medical practice.
The media must be wary not to become instruments of blackmail by applicants who failed the fitness test. "

Nigerians will be updated as we dig further to unearth the truth to ascertain if this is the ranting of a disappointed candidate or an attempt to cover up the indiscretion of an official of state.

Stale

Our political officers and other government officials keep making young Nigerians like me loose hope in this country on a daily basis... What an insane method of employment!

Am nt by any means doubting diz info bt it is realy hard to trust.

OP, what concerns Buhari's government with EFCC's method of scrutiny?

The FTC said this has been happening for ages. So how come Buhari's government is now part of the parties to blame?

If you want to complain, register them with the head of human resources, EFCC instead of looking for another reason to blame Buhari.

LoL

They need to ascertain its not botox

Salleh Is checking if the ladies are hiding Kworuption "somewhere"

This happens not just in nigeria.

I'm 100% sure of the United Kingdom. To join the British army, you have to strip nake.d and the entire body is scrutinised by a doctor. This includes the balls and genitals (for men) and the boobies (for women).

My cousin had his own physical examination also carried out by a female doctor as part of the requirements to join the British army.

The funny thing was that he failed the medicals (talk about adding more salt to injury) and couldn't proceed with his quest to join the British army but he never forgot all the groping, examination, etc he faced with the female doctor. He found it utterly embarrassing.

Na wa

That is the practice in all security agencies.so stop this nonsense propaganda just discreet some section of the country[ (in a thick Hausa accent) as 'Salleh'. i f we are going by your submission they are doing that to disallow Muslim women in general and hausas in particular from participation because of their hardstand on nudity.

Even under Buhari's nose, govt officials r watching "pawn". Soon they ll say d nxt stage is try out difft sizes of cucumber

Brb.

I honestly don't believe this story. I have had course to have physical examination in line with a course then. The examination was carried out by 2 male doctors.

The women in the group were all examined by 2 female doctors. That's the procedure world wide.

Even in the absence of a female doctor if a male were to examine a female there would be a female chaperone in the room to ensure he doesn't play tricks.

Well human beings can do nonsense when they feel they have power.

I have fear about what efcc will soon become.

The last recruitment was based on recommendations from politicians
