Institutional Memory, Professional Knowledge and the CORFEPS Journal

Tunji Olaopa argues that the Council of Retired Federal Permanent Secretaries (CORFEPS), chaired by Mahmud Yayale Ahmed, can use its members’ experience to support reform of Nigeria’s public administration. The association has launched the CORFEPS Journal on Public Policy and Governance to encourage exchanges between retired and serving public officials. The publication aims to preserve institutional memory, promote merit and professionalism, and strengthen the administration’s ability to implement public policy.
