The newly deployed permanent secretary of the ministry, Adam Mahamud Kambari who made the call when he assumed office as the new permanent secretary of the ministry in Abuja yesterday said, with effective collaboration, communication and good working relationship, the ministry will achieve the mandate set for it.

He said he would work with the ministers of the Environment to bring about meaningful and sustainable development to the environment sector, while commending the ministers for their achievements in the ministry.

The permanent secretary also used the medium to express appreciation to President Bola Tinunu and the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation for the trust and confidence bestowed on him to take on the assignment as Permanent Secretary.

“I sincerely pledge my absolute loyalty and commitment to our fatherland while counting on the support and cooperation of the Management and staff to effectively deliver on the mandate of the Ministry.

“This Ministry has had a rich history of achievements and legacies and I am committed to building upon them.

“I am optimistic that the cordial working relationship I had with the staff and management of the Service Welfare Office in the Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation would be the same or even better in the Federal Ministry of Environment.

“I will be committed to playing my role in executing the Ministerial Performance Bond for the Presidential Priorities and Deliverables (2023-2027) signed with Mr. President as well as ensuring the alignment of the activities of the Ministry with the 6 Pillars of the Federal Civil Service Strategy and Implementation plan 2021-2025 (FCSSIP25) for high impact performance.
