The Public Service Institute of Nigeria (PSIN), says it is poised to train civil servants to be incorruptible and perform optimally.
Dr Adbul-Ganiyu Obatoyinbo, the Administrator and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of PSIN, said this when Prof. Isa Hayatau Chiroma, Director-General of the Nigerian Law School visited him on Tuesday in Bwari, Abuja.
According to Obatoyinbo, the PSIN has integrity as its fundamental principle, not just in conducting exams and trainings, but also in its dealing with other government agencies, parastatals and clients.
He said as a result of its stance, agencies like the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), the Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offences Commission (ICPC) among others had always excelled in their exams.
He pledged that the institute would maintain the existing partnership with the Nigerian Law School.
According to him, the PSIN is presently building a 250 bedroom accommodation complex which will be ready before the end of the year.
“We already have 108 bedrooms in existence, of which the students can take advantage of,’’ Obatoyinbo said.
He said that students at the law school should be encouraged to come on study tour at the PSIN where they could be taught about public service rules, processes and regulations.
“I believe that as stakeholders in the institute, the overall concept of public service excellence can be transformed into the ease of doing business in Nigeria,’’ Obatoyinbo said.
In his response, Hayatau commended PSIN’s administrator for the visit.
He expressed his readiness to partner with the institute, emphasising his desire and plan for staff training and re-training which he said, was a core mandate of the PSIN.
Hayatau said he believed in the credibility of examinations conducted by the Institute compared to other organisations.
“We are open to any discussions within available resources and I am sure we are going to get a lot of concessions,’’ Hayatau said.
