We’re Committed To Transparency And Citizen Participation In Governance – FG

The Presidency has come out to say that the Federal Government is committed to transparency, inclusivity, and citizen participation in governance.

FG recently had its say via the Central Delivery Coordination Unit, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, the engagement meetings were introduced as a deliverable for every ministry in response to President Bola Tinubu’s directive that all ministers regularly communicate government initiatives, beneficial programmes, and policies to the public.

FG added that the meetings are expected to enhance the understanding of government policies while preventing misinterpretation.

It read, “This deliverable is to bridge the gap between the government and citizens, foster a good relationship between both parties, promote inclusivity, and ensure active citizen participation.

Ministers granting scheduled interviews (TV, radio or at events) to explain policies without stakeholders’ involvement.

Ministers attending events and speaking about ministry activities without stakeholders’ participation.”

WOW.
