President Bola Tinubu has instructed his ministers to share their progress updates with Nigerians as part of the events marking his first year in office.
This was made known by the Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, at a press briefing in Abuja on Wednesday.
The low-key first-anniversary celebration would be marked with sectoral media briefings by the 47 federal ministers starting on Thursday, May 23, according to Idris.
In an April interview on AriseTV, President’s Special Adviser Hadiza Bala-Usman said the Central Delivery Coordination Unit (CDCU) received updates from 20 of 35 ministries. The assessment involves ministers, citizens, and industry experts.
“Our submission is for the first quarter. So, the first quarter has just ended, and we have initiated the assessment process. The ministers have all been asked to submit their performance based on the deliverables,” she stated.
She asserted ministers would be assessed “Based on what is out there in the public space. They would write to say, ‘Based on every deliverable you have given me, this is what I’ve done within the first quarter of the year.’
“Through the Citizens Delivery Tracker app, Nigerians will also say, ‘this is what we’ve seen the minister do’ and they would aggregate it.”
