In every nation, the civil service forms the backbone of government operations, playing a critical role in implementing policies and ensuring the smooth functioning of public services. However, in Nigeria, there exists a disconcerting deviation from this ideal. This paper explores the substantial decline in the quality of services provided by personnel in Nigeria's federal and state civil services and examines the consequences of this deterioration on the nation's progress.

Theoretically, civil services are designed to be efficient, impartial, and dedicated to the public good. In Nigeria, however, the situation is markedly different. A visit to various federal and state establishments reveals a disheartening scenario: the prioritization of individual gain over collective progress. This self-serving attitude has led to a significant decline in the quality and efficiency of services offered to the public. Click link in our bio for more.

On her way from Abuja, the electrical engineering graduate of the University of Abuja, much like several others before her, was kidnapped. It prompts the question of whether Nigerian lives still hold value within the country when they can be snatched and lost indiscriminately, particularly in what is supposed to be the safest places in the nation.

Adding to the concern is the apparent struggle of the government and its security agencies to devise effective measures for safeguarding Nigerians from terrorists and kidnappers, contributing to the distressing state of affairs.

In Abuja, a harrowing incident unfolded as six girls were kidnapped alongside their father. While the father was eventually released, a ransom demand of N65 million was issued. Tragically, due to the family's inability to meet the demand, one of the daughters was killed, leaving the remaining siblings in ongoing jeopardy.

The gravity of the situation was further heightened by a distressing message revealing the location of the deceased daughter's body. She was a 400 level ABU student.

What can ever justify this type of senseless killing? Why should any security chief in the country sleep easy without bringing these demon possessed killers to justice?

This distressing event not only underscores the immediate concern over the government's apparent inability to effectively combat kidnapping but also emphasizes the far-reaching consequences, impacting not just the targeted family but the entire nation.

Given this urgent and troubling context, a heartfelt plea for donations is made to aid in the release of the kidnapped girls. This plea not only stresses the imperative for swift government action to address the broader security issue but also highlights the shared responsibility we bear in safeguarding our communities from such tragic events.
