The Federal Government has issued a warning to pubic officers against leaking of official documents.

This warning was conveyed in a circular shared with Okay.ng by the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation (HOS), Folasade Yemi–Esan on Monday.

According to Yemi-Esan, the federal government is being embarrassed by leaks of its official documents, adding that perpetrators will be sacked from the service.

The circular read: “The attention of the Office of the Head of Service of the Federation has been drawn to the recent unfortunate unauthorised disclosure of official documents on social media.

“In some cases, official documents that have been minuted on, are also leaked. This irresponsible and reckless action is an act of serious misconduct, with a penalty of dismissal from service, as provided for in Public Service Rules Nos. 030401 and 030402.

“The ugly development is embarrassing to government and, therefore, not acceptable. Any public officer caught engaging in this act of serious misconduct, will be severely dealt with in accordance with the provisions of the Public Service Rules.

“Permanent Secretaries are to draw the attention of all their staff to the contents of this circular and the consequences of breaking the rules.”
