“I am not unaware that Lagos State Public Service sees the benefit of what the institute (CIPM) brings to the professional cadre in the human resources cadre of the civil service , having served as the Commissioner for Establishment, Pensions and Training at one point, I have been an advocate of the need to put a professional trend in all of the possible cadres we have in the service.
Sanwo olu further express that
“I am happy that that trajectory has continued and we will continue to see a lot of civil servants and public servants taking professional examinations of the institute. I think the CIPM certification is apt and proper. It helps to put professionalism as a proper cardinal of the civil service so that the Human Resources cadre is not an all-comers cadre.”
Mr olusegun mojeed comment on the 55 years anniversary of the Institute holding in Abuja next week, as Governor Sanwo-Olu, will be the Special Guest of Honour,
He also said CIPM in the last I0 years has taken its place among the committee of institutes in the private or public sector.
Mojeed also commended Governor Sanwo-Olu for good governance and the impressive performance of his administration in the last four and half years which he described
“Lagos has recorded major milestones and witnessed laudable projects that are aimed at easing the burden on the average Lagosian and bringing progress and prosperity to the people for a Greater Lagos, he also CIPM would like to take the partnership with Lagos State to the next level.
He therefore seeks Governor Sanwo-Olu’s support for the recognition and inclusion of the CIPM certifications in the Lagos State Scheme of Service.
