Imeh Okon Esq. gave the commendation at the Management Retreat for Permanent Secretaries of Yobe State, held at the PSIN headquarters in Abuja.

The retreat, with the theme “Succession Planning, Leadership Continuity, and Institutional Sustainability in the Yobe State Public Service,” gathered senior bureaucrats and experts to discuss strategies for strengthening leadership and governance systems in the state civil service.

The PSIN administrator applauded Governor Mai Mala Buni for prioritizing capacity development and public sector training. She described the retreat’s theme as “timely and visionary,” noting that strong institutions thrive on systems that ensure continuity and knowledge transfer.

Okon said, PSIN is poised to building a competent, ethical, and innovative public service that delivers effective results to citizens.

She explained that sustainable succession planning must be based on continuous training, mentorship, and exposure to emerging governance trends.

She said Yobe State’s decision to adopt similar practices shows its readiness to sustain excellence and stability in governance.

She also highlighted Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation’s key programmes—SMART-P, which builds administrative and technical capacity; LEAD-P, which grooms potential leaders; and the Exit from Service Masterclass, which prepares officers for life after public service.

She urged the Yobe Government to integrate the Exit Masterclass into its human resource framework to ensure smooth transitions for retirees while preserving institutional memory and encouraging productivity through entrepreneurship and consultancy.

 Acting Head of Service of Yobe State, Alhaji Abdullahi Shehu, reaffirmed Governor Buni’s commitment to building a result-oriented and high-performing public service.

Represented by Dr Hamidu Babi, Permanent Secretary, Public Service in Yobe State, described PSIN as the “mother institution of public service learning” and expressed appreciation for the opportunity to train the top echelon of the officers.

Shehu further said the retreat formed part of efforts to institutionalize effective succession planning within the Yobe civil service to ensure productivity, efficiency, and better service delivery to citizens.
