Public appointments should be based on competence – PRP chieftain

Presidential aspirant and Peoples Redemption Party chieftain, Yakubu Kingsley, has emphasized that public appointments should be based on competence, integrity, and accountability, rather than ethnicity, religion, political affiliation, or personal loyalty. Kingsley stressed that the new direction for the country should promote merit, integrity, representation, transparency, and accountability in governance.

He further proposed a framework for public appointments that would enable Nigerians to assess the geographical, professional, and other dimensions of representation in government, aiming to reduce political accusations and counter-accusations over appointments.
