directed that immediate employment be offered to injured victims who are
still receiving treatment in various hospitals across the nation.
Disclosing this after the Federal Executive Council meeting that held
this morning, Minister of Information Labaran Maku said President
Jonathan directed that one of the three beneficiaries must be female.

The President also ordered that the last ill-fated exercise be cancelled and set up a new panel which would
conduct a fresh screening test for applicants. The Panel
is to be headed by the Chairman of the Federal Civil Service
Commission, Deaconess Joan Ayo and would have as members, a
rep from the Inspector General of Police as well as the Heads
of Immigration, Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corp, Nigerian
Prison Service, State Security Service and the Federal Road Safety
Commission.
The House of Reps has also summoned the Interior
Minister and the DG of NIS to appear before it to explain the
circumstances that led to the unfortunate incident at recruitment exercise
on Saturday.
