THE INSIDER: Eight-year tenure limit for directors introduced to check age cheats in MDAs | TheCable

The eight-year tenure policy for directors of federal ministries, departments and agencies was introduced to weed out age cheats in the civil service, TheCable can report.

The rules also provide that a director or its equivalent as may be prescribed by other MDAs shall compulsorily retire upon the attainment of eight years in that position.The federal ministry of finance is one of the MDAs that has commenced the implementation of the policy. The director said the reform proposed eight years as the maximum period that a director or permanent secretary can stay in the service.

“The sit-tight syndrome of many directors stalled the career progression of many deputy directors and it has caused disaffection across the MDAs. “Some permanent secretaries and directors should not have been in the service by now if they had not doctored their age. They ought not to spend more than eight years,” he said.
