FG Bars MDAs From Using Private Printing Firms Over Leak Memos by SamGift0817(op): 9:40am On Aug 21, 2025
The Federal Government has banned its Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) from engaging private printing firms for official jobs, directing them instead to use the Federal Government Printing Press.

A leaked memo, signed by the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), George Akume, and obtained exclusively by the villainfostratic, cited security concerns and recent cases of confidential documents being exposed as reasons for the decision.

According to the circular, all official printing, including gazettes, security documents and other sensitive materials, must henceforth be handled by the Government Printing Press under the Ministry of Information and National Orientation.

I see lack of confidentiality ethics on the part of the private printing firm here.

As a good firm, the privacy of job in your custody is key, irrespective of the client.

Thank God, ever since I have been handling printing of documents, exams, tutorial materials in volumes, there has never been any complain whatsoever.

Trust and reliability is what sustain your business.

This will safe Government some money and reduce the corruption of inflated printing prices apart from ensuring sensitive documents are not leaked outside.
Re: FG Bars MDAs From Using Private Printing Firms Over Leak Memos by OlujobaSamuel: 12:08pm On Aug 21, 2025
You mean MDAs dey print memo for business centres??
Btw, gazette should be a public document so that should not be classified as leaked memo
Re: FG Bars MDAs From Using Private Printing Firms Over Leak Memos by Majesty33(m): 12:09pm On Aug 21, 2025
Once there is any leakage in government agencies act of corruption, they move to block the leakage. chaii undecided

E be like na UTC for area 10 dem dey use grin

Reason why this leakage issues continue is because there's no effective deterrence!

They should make example of anyone caught leaking government communications designated as "confidential"

It's unprofessional of whoever is leaking the information. We should see our jobs as our responsibility. Not everything is for public consumption.
Re: FG Bars MDAs From Using Private Printing Firms Over Leak Memos by Kewekubosineh: 1:56pm On Aug 21, 2025
LoL 😆

From 🔥 fire to frying pan.

Federal Government Press,as it is positioned today, can't handle the job independently.

The agency lacks necessary tools to do the job. Dilapidated machines. Many qualified hands have Retired from the service after attaining mandatory 35 years of service or 60yrs.

As a result, printing jobs are carried out outside the premises of the company. Majorly to Shomolu and Mushin areas where printing houses are many. So, how do you expect secrecy or privacy of the job? It will surely leak.

Again, the management structure is flawed. The company is yet to get a substantive Federal Government Printer to handle all printing jobs of the company. They have acting government printer, a Lady,who is on GL 15,and not a core professional. As a result, printing jobs of the agency lacks necessary professional touch.

As an Insider, something has to be done urgently by the government to revitalize the agency. Not the present state it finds itself.

It's a good idea,all agencies print their works at FGN for sake of confidentiality,but it has to be given necessary filips before this policy thrust is carried out.

No .. they want to force the MDAs to patronize the Govt owned Printing Press..same way Lagos is doing.
Most of the State owned Presses are inefficient, grossly obsolete equipment, poorly trained staff and extremely bureaucratic business practice hence the preference for Private owned companies who deliver on time and professionally.
Any leaked memo is done with MDA staff NOT Private Printing Presses.
