On Monday, the Presidency introduced its Citizens’ Delivery Tracker, offering a streamlined channel for citizens to provide feedback to the government regarding the eight priority areas outlined by the Bola Tinubu administration.
Hadiza Bala-Usman, the President’s Special Adviser on Policy and Coordination, revealed this during the Go-Live event of the CDT in Abuja.
Bala-Usman said, “The platform will be available as an app for download in the next few months.”
She said Monday’s unveiling is the conclusion of a months-long process since President Tinubu announced plans for ministerial assessment at the Cabinet Retreat for ministers and heads of government agencies last November.
The eight priority areas are: Reform the economy to deliver sustained inclusive growth, strengthen national security for peace and prosperity, boost agriculture to achieve food security, and unlock energy and natural resources for sustainable development.
Others are to enhance infrastructure and transportation as enablers of growth, focus on education, health, and social investment as essential pillars of development, accelerate diversification through industrialisation, digitisation, creative arts, manufacturing & innovation and Improve governance for effective service delivery.
In an interview last October, Bala-Usman revealed that the Federal Government would prioritise citizen engagement to ensure that Nigerians are part of the ministerial assessment.
“We’re going to deploy an application, a software where citizens are able to report back on project-based deliverables that the federal government has committed to doing within the period to 2024,” she explained.
