RMAFC introduces performance management system for staff
The Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC) has adopted a new Performance Management System (PMS) for its staff, replacing the long-standing annual performance evaluation report.
A statement on Wednesday by the Head of Information and Public Relations Unit of the Commission, Maryam Umar Yusuf, said the new system is part of efforts to enhance productivity, accountability, and service delivery through digital transformation.
The Chairman of the Commission, Dr. Mohammed Bello Shehu, who was represented at the training workshop by Hon. Ismail Mohammed Agaka, Federal Commissioner representing Kwara State, said the initiative was designed to move RMAFC from analog practices to digital-driven processes.
“Automation and digital tools will streamline processes, minimise errors, and make the analog system a thing of the past,” Dr. Shehu said.
He urged staff to prepare for the changes, warning that resistance could affect their roles within the Commission. “If you do not shake into the system, the system will likely shake you out,” he cautioned. He also advised personnel to adjust their mindset and attitude to embrace the transition expected in the coming months.
Addressing participants at the workshop, the Secretary to the Commission, Mr. Nwaeze Joseph Okechukwu, described RMAFC as one of Nigeria’s strategic institutions and stressed the importance of the training exercise.
“The training will ensure that officers experience digital transformation and develop new skills. I encourage staff to learn, unlearn, and relearn, while maintaining good dressing and the culture of punctuality to promote a professional and respectful work environment,” Okechukwu stated.
The Performance Management System consultant from Reliefline Nigeria Limited, Mr. Emmanuel Ohiro, lauded the Commission for adopting the new system, noting that it would strengthen efficiency.
“This workshop is a good idea, and I urge you to take it seriously as it will improve your service delivery,” Ohiro said in his goodwill message.
The training programme, organised by the Administration and Human Resources Department of RMAFC in collaboration with Reliefline Nigeria Limited, commenced on Tuesday, September 16, 2025, and will run daily until Wednesday, September 24, 2025.
