FCTA Launches CBT Promotion Exercise for Over 13,000 Civil Servants

The Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) has commenced its 2025 promotion exercise for more than 13,000 civil servants serving across the FCTA and the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA).

Chairman of the FCT Civil Service Commission, Emeka Ezeh, announced the development on Wednesday, stating that the exercise was approved by the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike.

According to Ezeh, the 10-day promotion exercise began on July 1, 2026, and covers more than 13,000 eligible officers across 150 different cadres and grade levels. He said the initiative aligns with the Federal Government's Renewed Hope Agenda and is designed to ensure qualified workers progress in their careers.

He also disclosed that Minister Wike has directed the commission to conduct the 2026 promotion exercise before the end of the year, allowing all eligible civil servants another opportunity for advancement.

The minister further instructed the commission to collaborate with relevant FCTA agencies to ensure a smooth and transparent exercise while preventing challenges experienced during previous promotion examinations.

Ezeh assured participants that adequate preparations had been made for a seamless Computer-Based Test (CBT) exercise and wished all candidates success.

The commission noted that it became the first civil service commission in Nigeria to introduce Computer-Based Testing for promotion examinations in 2024, just six months after its inauguration.
