…2025 management retreat begins
The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) is developing capabilities to strengthen staff capacity to ensure operational efficiency.
During the 2025 management retreat in Abuja, the Executive Vice President of the FCCPC, Tunji Bello, reaffirmed the Commission’s focus on improving efficiency and building a stronger and more resilient institution.
He said the retreat provides an opportunity to take stock of the Commission’s progress, identify existing gaps and chart a clear path towards improved performance and service delivery.
The EVC also took the opportunity to introduce Hajiya Ummusalma Isiyaku Rabiu and Mr. Louis Odion as the newly appointed Executive Commissioners of Corporate Operations and Services. Both officials, he noted, will soon attend the mandatory induction course at the Administrative Staff College of Nigeria (ASCON), Badagry, in line with Federal Government policy.
Bello acknowledged that when he assumed leadership of the FCCPC in July 2024, he inherited a thriving agency, which by all standards had created an enviable image and a place of honor among the regulatory agencies of the Federal Government of Nigeria.
He said that, although relatively young and evolving, the FCCPC has gained national and international recognition for its enforcement and advocacy work, noting that lasting impact depends on continued investment in staff capacity, modern tools and a well-aligned structure.
“The strength of the FCCPC lies in a critical mass among Commission staff,” he said.
“We must continue to invest in knowledge, systems and work environments that support productivity and professionalism. This retreat is not a formality; it is a deliberate effort to reposition the Commission for long-term success.”
He added that the challenges facing the organization go beyond technical competence. They also imply maintaining discipline, respecting communication channels and living up to the service values that define public institutions.
“We have to build a results-driven culture based on equity, teamwork and accountability,” he said.
The EVC encouraged participants to make the discussions practical and forward-looking, assuring them that the withdrawal resolutions will guide upcoming reforms aimed at strengthening FCCPC operations for efficiency.
