Oyintiloye urges FCC to resist pressure, ensure transparency in federal jobs

Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, a prominent member of Nigeria's All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun State, called upon the Federal Character Commission (FCC) to maintain transparency and resist pressure in the distribution of government employment opportunities. Speaking with journalists in Osogbo on Sunday, Oyintiloye urged the newly appointed FCC Chairman, Ayo Omidiran, to uphold the principles of merit and fairness in the management of public service employment.

He emphasized that the FCC holds a crucial role in promoting equitable distribution of opportunities and preventing any section of the country from being unfairly disadvantaged.

Oyintiloye praised the FCC for acknowledging concerns about fairness in recruitment and allegations of corrupt practices, viewing this as an important step towards institutional reform and restoring public confidence. He urged Omidiran to confront any intimidation or harassment that may arise in the commission's pursuit of its responsibilities, stressing the need to uphold the confidence placed in her by President Bola Tinubu.

Oyintiloye expressed confidence that sustained reforms under Omidiran's leadership would make the FCC a more credible and people-centred institution, encouraging Nigerians and job seekers to take advantage of employment opportunities advertised by government agencies during recruitment exercises.
