The Governor of Anambra State, Prof. Charles Chukwuma Soludo has insisted that the promotions and occupation of any position in the state would be strictly on merit.
Gov. Soludo said his administration would maintain transparency and due process in discharging his responsibilities, especially as it concerned the welfare and progress of civil servants.
Soludo made it known through his Chief Press Secretary, Christian Aburime, while briefing journalists at his office, at the Government House, Awka.
Aburime was reacting to the misinformation on social media that the planned examination for the promotion into the position of permanent secretaries in the state, slated to hold on August 24 is a sham.
The Anambra State Head of Service, Barr. Theodora Igwegbe, had in her release announced for the promotion exam into the position of permanent secretaries.
Barr. Igwegbe in her release said, “Following the call for applications for the appointment of Permanent Secretaries with the Anambra State Government, the state government invites the shortlisted applicants to a written test.
“The written test is scheduled to hold as stated, date: 24th August 2022, time: 9 am Prompt, venue: Staff Development Centre behind Government House, Awka, Anambra State.
“Applicants are advised to come along with the original and photocopies of their credentials and other relevant documents.
“This process will be managed by PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) with support from the Office of the Head of Service of Anambra State.”
