Vision #3. GOVERNANCE: A NEW PARADIGM (CONTD)
My vision for transformative leadership in Nigeria is based on what outcomes the leader would like to achieve by the end of a four-year term of office, his/her understanding of public policy,
national/international experience of best practice standards of good governance. Other elements of a clear vision include political and institutional will, preparation, and proactive readiness to govern.
The next President of Nigeria should:
- use the transition period between winning an election and swearing-in to finalize plans he/she should have already made to hit the ground running.
- Appoint key presidency officials such as Secretary to the Government , National Security
Adviser and Chief of Staff immediately upon being sworn into office as President.
- Nominate and announce his/her cabinet with 48 hours of being sworn in. Subject to Senate confirmation, Ministers should be at their desk & start work within 30 days of the President’s swearing-in.
All appointments of CEOs and board directors of public sector parastatals will be made within 90 days from Day One of the new administration.
-Meritocracy/professionalism will be restored. Proper corporate governance will be restored to public institutions.
An inclusive approach to governance, in decision making process and personnel appointments will become a hallmark of governance. Federal Character will be respected but without prejudice to merit. No region or section of Nigeria will be marginalized. Equity and justice’ll reign.
Extensive, fundamental reform of the Federal Public Service will take place. Cost of governance will be drastically cut. Concurrent expenditure wil. E reduced to not more than 50% of budget by the end of the second year in office. Savings will be shifted to health, education,
Science, Technology and Innovation (STI) and infrastructure. There will be a moratorium on ALL foreign borrowing, with ratio of revenues to debt servicing brought down to no more than 30%. World class project management companies will supervise all federal infrastructure projects
to ensure transparency and delivery on time and under budget. As President of Nigeria I will establish and govern via four critical offices: National Office of Strategy, National Office of Risk Management, Office of Performance Management, and the Office of Human Capital Mangt.
Strategy, risk, performance and project management will become an integral part of governance in all ministries, departments and agencies.
