SERVICOM
SERVICOM is an acronym for service compact with all Nigerians. Established on 21st March 2004 by the then government of President Olusegun Obasanjo to checkmate the quality of services rendered to the citizens by Ministries, Department and Agencies which had hitherto being very poor.
SERVICOM by its establishment became the engine room for quality service delivery. With it’s motto 'You have the right to be served right', it now behooves on SERVICOM to ensure that the compact (agreement) entered into by all public/civil servants are appropriately maintained in the discharge of their duties to the Nigerian populace. By this compact also, it is expected that wherever service is provided, it is expected to be the very best that an officer can offer devoid of unnecessary delays or failure since by the compact officers have sworn to 'dedicate themselves to providing quality service to which citizens, are entitled to timely, fairly, honestly, effectively and transparently.
Again, the SERVICOM mandate expects that public servants are:
a) Providence quality services designed customer’s requirements.
b) Set out citizens'/customers entitlements in ways they can readily understand.
c) Identify the list of fees payback and prohibit illegal demands.
d) Be committed to providing services within an acceptable and realistic time frame.
e) Conduct and publish surveys of customer satisfaction.
The SERVICOM office is established within the presidency to operationalize Government's commitments under SERVICOM.
