In a bold step towards promoting professionalism and excellence in the Civil Service, the Head of Service (HOS), Mr. Benson Ojeikere, has unveiled the “Lunch Hour Mentorship Programme” (LHMP). This groundbreaking initiative aims to equip Civil Servants with the skills, knowledge, and integrity necessary to excel in modern governance.
Speaking at the unveiling ceremony, Mr. Ojeikere highlighted that the LHMP is meticulously designed to impart advanced skills, foster professionalism, and instill a culture of unwavering integrity among Civil Servants. He emphasized that the programme represents a significant stride in enhancing the competence and efficiency of the workforce.
The LHMP will leverage the vast experience of seasoned Civil Servants, who will act as mentors to their colleagues. These mentors are expected to provide valuable guidance, share professional insights, and inspire their peers to carry out their duties with excellence and dedication to public service.
Mr. Ojeikere reiterated the critical responsibility of cultivating a disciplined, ethical, and highly efficient workforce, stressing that professionalism remains the cornerstone of the Civil Service. He also reaffirmed the government’s commitment to ensuring Civil Servants receive the recognition and support they deserve.
Calling on Civil Servants to embrace the programme, Mr. Ojeikere urged them to rise to the occasion and transform the Civil Service into a world-class institution synonymous with efficiency and accountability.
