It was my pleasure to declare open yesterday, a 3-Day Capacity Building workshop organized for Technical Working Group Anchors & Heads of Secretariat constituted for the development of the Medium-Term National Development Plans (2021 - 2025 & 2026 -2030) & the Nigeria Agenda 2050
(1) As a responsible government, keen on changing the fortune of Nigerians, the administration of President @MBuhari desires that we periodically draw comprehensive plans through which the welfare of citizens can be enhanced economically and socially, among others.
(2) The new plans being articulated are expected to address development challenges in all aspects of the nation’s life within the agreed time frame; and, so it was thought wise to build the capacity of the major drivers of the process to achieve a robust outcome.
