NGF holds induction for new, returning governors (LIVE UPDATES)
According to the organisers, the initiative is aimed at supporting incoming governors to develop key governance and management skills that will enable them to transition from campaigning to managing the processes of governance.Yesterday, various sessions were held on how governors can chart their roadmap into leadership and governance.
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, in his speech, urged states to earn more internally generated revenue to support the efforts of the federal government.Mr Osinbajo said Mr Buhari has made it clear that he will focus on human development in the next four years. The highpoint of yesterday’s event, however, was when some development partners, during the final session, took turns to intimate the incoming governors on various grants worth millions of dollars that they can access if they meet certain criteria.
The development partners are African Development Bank , Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation , DFID, GIZ, UNICEF, USAID, World Bank and Dangote Foundation.A separate programme for the wives of the new governors on etiquette and protocol will hold on Wednesday, the final day of the event.
