The Ogun State governor, DAPO ABIODUN has directed the Chairman of the Civil Service Commission to refund all administrative fees currently being charged in relation to the ongoing recruitment exercise into the state’s civil service.

 Secretary to the State Government (SSG), TOKUNBO TALABI, made this known in a statement issued in Abeokuta the state capital.

Governor DAPO directed the civil service commission to refund all administrative fees, notwithstanding the fact that they are standard and historical fees that have been in place for decades.

He said the fees are charged by the civil service commission on behalf of third-party independent examiners who administer and supervise the Computer Based Test (CBT).

He added that the aim is to alleviate the suffering of the citizens and create employment in the state, which necessitates the directives to immediately refund fees paid along with a waiver for any new applications.
