Major General Abdulmalik Jibrin (Retd.) has taken over as the Secretary to the Civil
Defence Correctional Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB) following his recent appointment by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The handover ceremony took place at the board headquarters on Monday.
He took over from his predecessor Alh. Ja’afaru Ahmed, who was once the Controller General, Nigeria Correctional Service (NCoS).
In his remarks, the outgoing Board Secretary thanked Mr. President for finding him worthy to serve within the shortest period.
He pointed out that through the able leadership of the Minister of Interior/Chairman of the Board, Hon. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, he was able to secure presidential
approval for some of the reforms, amongst which includes the independence of the Board Secretariat thus allowing the Board to recruit its own staff members.
He urged staff members of the Board Secretariat to accord all the necessary support needed for the incoming secretary to succeed.
Abdulmalik, on his part, thanked the Almighty Allah and Mr. President for the opportunity to serve the Secretary of the Board.
He assured the staff members of the Board Secretariat of his commitment to build on the laid down reforms of his predecessor.
In his vote of thanks, the Chairman of the Board Union, Comrade Gbadamasi
Saheed, thanked the outgoing Secretary for his leadership qualities and pledged the
support of the Board staff to the incoming Board Secretary to have seamless tenure
in office.
