Meanwhile, after collecting N3000 for job forms from about 10,000 persons, only 160 applicants were finally selected.

Some youths seeking to secure jobs in the Taraba State Civil Service have revealed how the state government extorted money from them through its civil service commission.

A source told FIJ that thousands of youths seeking jobs in the 16 local governments in the state were extorted by the commission after they were asked to pay N3000 for forms.


This is despite having some budgetary funds allocated to the commission for recruitment purposes.

Meanwhile, after collecting N3000 for job forms from about 10,000 persons, only 160 applicants were finally selected.

The source said, “In February this year, the commission conducted a recruitment exercise where application forms were sold for N3000.”

He added that John Mamman, the commission’s chairman had announced via Taraba Television on April 2 that only 1,825 out of approximately 10,000 applicants would be recruited.

Meanwhile, the commission said it would start employment with 160 applicants among the 1,825 successful ones. But the youths are not sure if this would be continued after the first set of applicants were engaged on Monday.

“Every local government has 10 wards and we have 16 local governments in Taraba, which means they would be selecting one person from each ward, making 10 applicants from each local government area,” he added.

FIJ learned that the employment scheme had been generating criticisms since 2017, when applicants alleged barefaced extortion by the government. Their grievances led to a protest in 2021.

Mamman, the chairman of the commission, repeatedly defended the sale of forms, saying it was constitutional. He blamed politicians for contracting youths to bastardise the commission’s effort.

For those of us who are doing APC and PDP, we do it with our chest with no apology. Nigerians will fix Nigeria and not angels.

You call that trolling? In Buddhism, you always stand with what is good no matter the consequences. Even if it's your mother or father that is evil,you treat them just same way you will treat a stranger who is Evil, that's the true mindset of everyone who truly wish to build a good country just as you have made mention of building Nigeria.

But you see you and these guys Mannabbqgrill Freestuffsng ilovedemmanna Useni1 benuejosh Azeez, you are the opposite of what a good citizen should stand for. You are selective of the evil you condemn. The post you mentioned me on thinking I am a PDP member made you really excited I think,but on the front page are countless of such post from APC and even worse but you guys will never condemn, the best Mannabbqgrill will do is to place curse on Ipob for a crime committed up North, is that not evil laced with self deceit?

I believe you would have been a keyboard warrior by now if happening in this country happened under PDP? Like I said, the law or Buddha demands you treat all evil as same no matter who is involved if you are truly serious about a better Nigeria.

With the current economic realities, it will be highly impossible for a backwater State like Taraba to absolve all applicants into the State workforce. Kudos to the government for creating the window for some youths to get employed. Hope he made provision for refund to unfortunate applicants.

There is absolutely no sense in your comment. We are talking about running a democratic country through multi-party democracy and you’re talking about Buddhism. My friend, stop mixing faux religious doctrines that nobody adheres to anyway to politics.

You have a right not to support APC or PDP the same way others have the right to support any of the two parties. Go and support Ipob or form Buddha political party if that’s what you want and allow others support whoever they want to support in peace.

And yeah, it’s quite hypocritical of you to accuse me of tagging you to this thread because it’s anti-PDP. Since you’ve been trolling my handle, how many pro-APC or anti-PDP thread have you tagged me to? Just mention one and I will voluntarily delete account. You claim not to be pro-PDP but the only handles your trolling are pro-APC handles. You think you can deceive anybody with your evil intention?

See, take your stupid Buddha out of my mention or else I will crash your mention. My tolerance for trolls is now zero, it shall be fire for fire going forward.
