Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on policy coordination, Hadiza Bala-Usman, revealed this Monday in Abuja at the inauguration of the committee for the review and harmonisation of sectoral policies.
Bala-Usman said the committee was inaugurated to help the government review sectoral policies to enhance collaboration across the sectors.
She said: “The key aspects that we have noted is that we have absence of interrelationship across sectoral policies and the federal government have deemed it fit to constitute this team that will look at how sectoral policies would be reviewed, how sectoral policies will be coordinated, how it would enhance collaboration across the sectors.
“We have noted the concern about some outdated policies that sit within our sectors and the need for us to engage with the respective ministries and respective stakeholders to come up with the current policy deployment that speaks to the realities of what is needed to achieve our eight presidential priorities.
“So, this is what this team will be working on. We’re going to lean on subject matter experts across the sectors. We are going to work with the respective ministries and heads of agencies to see what needs to be done to enhance our policy deployment across sectors and ministries of federal government.”
Prof Ayo Omotayo, Director General, National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS), said: “NIPPS together with other collaborating agencies will deliver to the nation a workable plan and develop an implementation framework, such that policies in Nigeria will no longer contradict themselves.
“We will ensure that cross-sectoral issues having contradictions in our policies will also be resolved at the end of the efforts we’re trying to put in. NIPSS will not spare any effort in giving all the support that the Special Advisor needs to get the job done for the nation.”
Recall that the meeting had representations from the Office of the Vice President and the Office of the Secretary General of the Federation.
