Wow!!! This is how the story of 30 accountants came up here. People watching the news but misunderstanding what they heard.

I listened to the news this guy is referring to.

It was at a budget defence where an official (I am not sure what office he holds) was explaining why some figures were unused in the EFCC 2020 buget and he was saying that there is an ongoing recruitment that was suspended because of the corona virus.

Haba!!! You guys should be calming down o.

As I promised to feed you with vital information about this awaited Nscdc recruitment, the news is classified into two phases;
However, Cg has been working to get an extension of some months to graduate the candidates before his retirement but whether cg leaves or not, the recruitment is still active and the list will be out any moment from now in November, 2020 from the source.
Therefore, correctional service have finished their recruitment except training those officers that did the documentation in October, 2020 furthermore, forget about the news which is being trending on media about the exam, there will be no exam for the applicants and successful applicants would be informed to attend the documentation and training at the same time, let me emphasis on this, the source revealed that there will be no exam, only successful candidates would be invited for documentations and training and the list will be sent to the respective states commands of the applicants before end of November, 2020 but the date has not been fixed about shorlist.
Thank you. May God Almighty include our names among the shortlisted candidates Amen.

Please those anticipating the next step of this recruitment process, while waiting, can we at least begin to share possible exam questions, past questions and links

salaries
…Workers of Federal Fire Service, ECN, others plead hardship, threaten to stay off work
…CEOs of MDAs must explain what happened — Finance Ministry official
By Our Reporter
At least 428 Ministries, Departments and Agencies, MDAs, in the federal civil service have reportedly exhausted their 2020 personnel costs and are, therefore, unable to pay salaries.
Funds meant for personnel costs are domiciled in accounts overseen by the Integrated Personnel Payroll Information System, IPPIS, department in the Office of the Accountant-General of the Federation, OAGF.
But an official of the Ministry of Finance who pleaded anonymity, told Vanguard yesterday that it was strange for MDAs to claim to have exhausted their personnel budgets before end of a fiscal year.
He said each MDA has a budget for personnel costs and wondered how anyone would claim there was no money to pay salaries.
According to him, chief executive officers of such MDAs have to explain what is happening.
However, the situation is such that the morale of officers and men of the Federal Fire Service, FFS, for instance, is now at an all-time low, following inability of the Ibrahim Alhaji Liman-led management of the service to pay salaries of the operatives for the past two months.
Consequently, there are grumblings within the service, with plans by some personnel to stay away from work, saying they could no longer continue to borrow money to come to work.
While the operatives used to receive their salaries between 26th and 29th of every month, the situation took a dramatic turn in September as they were not paid.
Hopes that they would be paid in days became dashed when weeks after, they were still not paid. A similar situation recurred in the month of October.
Hard times
Many of the operatives, who spoke with Vanguard, said life had become increasingly difficult for them as they are unable to meet financial obligations while they have exhausted their goodwill with their neighbours and can no longer continue to borrow money to feed and go to work.
It was learned that the situation is not different in many other MDAs.
“Schools were only recently reopened after the COVID-19 induced lock-down. This is the time to pay fees. Some of us have more than one child in school. Where do we get the money to pay the fees?” a staff in one of the MDAs lamented.
Another personnel who also declined to give his name for fear of possible sanctions, said he was tired of borrowing from neighbours.
He said: “I am deployed in one of the states where state workers are not even paid on time. Now, the Federal Government has not paid me for the past two months. Who do I borrow from? Is it from my neighbours who are state civil servants and who have also not been paid or who are paid in percentages?
“My wife sells foodstuffs. As I speak, we have exhausted all she had in the shop. My situation is even better. There are some couples who are both staff of the service. Only God knows how those ones have been surviving.
“We are not even talking about allowances or beverages that should be given to operations staff. We are asking for our salaries. They blame us for speaking in the social media but the truth is that most of us did not even say anything on the social media.
“When our creditors come to ask for debt repayments and we keep telling them that we have not been paid, definitely the news will get out to the public because those ones will start spreading tales about how we owe them and have refused to pay back.”
Not only FFS, but other MDAs
The Federal Fire Service had issued two circulars within one month regarding the situation. In the first circular dated October 14, 2020, and signed by the Director, Finance and Accounts of the Service, Agholor Michael, the paramilitary agency sought to downplay the development, saying it was not the only one affected.
“This is to inform the personnel of the service that delay in the payment of September 2020 salary was due to insufficient funds in the Federal Fire Service personnel cost head, just like other MDAs.
“Consequent upon the above, relevant agencies have been contacted and efforts are in top gear to resolve the issue as soon as possible,” the circular stated.
Vanguard checks, however, revealed that other services in the Ministry of Interior are not caught in the same web of non-payment of salaries.
Aside from the Federal Fire Service, other agencies in the ministry are the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC, the Nigeria Correctional Service, NcoS, and the Nigeria Immigration Service NIS.
428 MDAs can’t pay
However, in another circular dated October 30, 2020, the service was specific in stating that 428 “Ministries and Extra Ministerial Departments of the Federal Government” are affected.
The circular, signed by the Deputy Controller-General (Admin & Supplies), Mr Quintus G. Azogu, on behalf of the Controller General read: “I am directed to inform all personnel of the Service that the Integrated Personnel Payroll Information System, IPPIS, department of the Office of the Accountant-General of the Federation, OAGF, was unable to pay salaries since September 2020 due to insufficient fund in the Services 2020 Personnel budgetary allocation.
“Similarly, about four hundred and twenty-eight (428) Ministries and Extra Ministerial Departments of the Federal Government were affected.
“However, the Service is in touch with the relevant authorities of Federal Ministry of Finance to ensure that this delay is resolved as soon as possible to enable the payment of outstanding salaries for the year 2020.
“To this effect, I am further directed to seek the understanding, patience and cooperation of all personnel, pending the resolution of the matter.”
Same problem at ECN
Vanguard recalls that the Energy Commission of Nigeria ECN had in a similar circular dated October 5, 2020, advanced the same reason for its inability to pay the staff.
Director, Finance & Accounts of the ECN, Cletus D. Nnah, who signed the circular on behalf of the commission’s Director-General/CEO, had said the development affected 422 agencies.
The circular read: “I am directed to inform all staff of the commission that the Integrated Personnel Payroll Information System, IPPIS, department of the Office of the Accountant General of the Federation was unable to pay our September, 2020 salary due to insufficient fund in the commission’s 2020 personnel budgetary allocation.
“However, the commission in conjunction with the Federal Ministry of Science and Technology (FMST) and OAGF IPPIS department is liaising with the Federal Ministry of Finance (FMF) to obtain authority to incur expenditure for payment of our outstanding salary for the year 2020. This delay is affecting about 422 agencies of the government and will be resolved quickly.
“Consequently, I am also directed to solicit the cooperation of all staff to be patient with the government, pending the resolution of this matter. You are also kindly advised to be prudent with whatever salary you receive within this fiscal 2020. Please be assured of the Director-General/CEO’s warm regards, and best wishes.”
Some staff of this agency also said life had been tough for them and their families, wondering how government expected to cope with the present inflationary trend in the country.
A staff who pleaded anonymity lamented: “It’s been tough surviving. Another month (October) has ended now and there is no sign that he will be paid. How does one survive?”
While it was not clear how the personnel costs were exhausted, checks revealed that it was either the funds were deployed for other purposes or that the affected agencies overshot their recruitment allocation, in which case they recruited new personnel above what was approved for them.

PS: Federal government that can't pay salaries right now, can it finance recruitment? I think those waiting for this NSCDC job should find something else to do.

Nnpccourtcase:

No date was conffered on the letter except stamp and signeture and at the top of the letter they wrote boldly "secret" in red, the training is 3 months and the person asked him to be ready anytime he may call him to report at designed orientation camp.

FatherCHRISTMAS:
i don't know know what to believe anymore. I got information that it's will be in late October.
it seems evrything is just speculation jarre

johntraffic:



They have not brought out the list yet. Probably, next month.

nuradeen011:
Media aid to the CG said Any moment from now, you can all contact your sources

johntraffic:
New ranking and salary structure

maureensylvia:


am in kano too...did you submit yours?

Houston17:


My dear, that's the reality of what Nigeria has been o. It might interest you to know that NCC hardly advertises its recruitment just like CBN. So to enter there na by strong leg o.

God help us

nuradeen011:
I don't know the amount of money we need to publish it on one of this papers daily trust, Blue print, telegraph, The Nation or the Cables, many will oppose the idea but my thought is doing something is better than to keep waiting, "unending anticipation is the mother of all anxiety"

oshionelecky:


You raised the idea. I was thinking you already had it planned.

What is your plan for raising the funds?

You raised the idea. I was thinking you already had it planned.

What is your plan for raising the funds?

You raised the idea. I was thinking you already had it planned.

What is your plan for raising the funds?

How do you plan to assure potential contributors that the funds will not be diverted?

Also, do you think that an open letter published on a national daily will have the desired impact?

There's a lot to figure out if your plan should succeed.

Left to me I see nothing coming up until the NCS board's next meeting has been held.

oshionelecky:


You didn't say anything about how the newspaper space will be funded.

foxriver8:
Good writers amongst us should write an open letter to the CG published on national dailies demanding the closure of this exercise. Every single customs officer that I asked about this recruitment tell me the same thing, that the CG is holding everything. He alone has the power to see this through whenever he sees fit.

Booler:
no nah, from logical interpretation, when list is out it invariably means they are the successful ones that did well in CBT. No CBT result will be published o.

Saimeritus:

Forget People's claim, I didn't finish the 100 questions. When the list comes out, we will know the truth.

DollarBuddy:



While I pray they contact us this week, I also don't think they will. The issue on ground now and the major concern of this government is #ENDSARS

Let's pray it doesn't affect the whole thing. Yesterday, i chatted an officer who works in the recruitment board and he told me nothing Is currently happening in regards to the nscdc recruitment.
