Mininim Oseji, Delta State head of service, says the state has embarked on digital transformation and institutional strengthening for improved service delivery.

Mrs Oseji said this on Monday at a news conference held at the state Ministry of Information to announce activities for the 2026 civil service week celebration, themed “Reforms, Resilience and Results”.

She said the event is an opportunity for reflection, evaluation and renewed commitment to the ideals of professionalism, accountability, patriotism, integrity, innovation and service excellence in public administration.

According to the head of service, the theme underscores the determination of the Delta public service to build a resilient workforce capable of delivering measurable results, while adapting to emerging challenges in governance.

“We are taking deliberate steps to strengthen our institutions, equip our personnel and modernise our service processes.

“This includes enhancing digital infrastructure, deepening inter-agency collaboration and promoting meritocracy and inclusiveness across the civil service structure,” she said.

One of the administration’s most ambitious projects is the transformation of the staff training centre into a world-class institution modelled after Singapore’s renowned Civil Service College.

She said the vision is to establish a modern centre that combines digital learning, physical training facilities, ICT infrastructure and partnerships with reputable training organisations.

She expressed confidence that the upgraded centre would emerge as a leading destination for 21st-century capacity building in Nigeria’s public sector.

“The civil service reforms are being cascaded to the local government level through collaboration with the Directorate of Local Government Affairs and the Local Government Service Commission,” she said.

According to her, the initiative was designed to ensure uniformity, efficiency and improved service delivery across all tiers of governance in Delta.

Mrs Oseji expressed profound appreciation to Governor Sheriff Oborevwori for his support and commitment to public service reforms.
