The Public Service Commission has promoted 117 State Attorneys in the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) to the rank of Senior State Attorney.
These attorneys had diligently served as State Attorneys for over 8 years. It is envisaged that the promotions will motivate the promoted staff and enhance prosecution service delivery.
These promotions will also pave way for the recruitment of over 70 State Attorneys to address the longstanding staffing gap in the ODPP and further bolster the administration of criminal justice.
