The Bola Ahmed Tinubu Ideological Group has urged President Bola Tinubu to institutionalise a quarterly leadership summit for governors, local government chairmen and political appointees to strengthen policy coordination and accelerate grassroots development across the country.
The group’s Convener, Bamidele Atoyebi, made the call in a statement on Thursday, saying the initiative, alongside a monthly policy focus, would ensure that all tiers of government worked towards clearly defined national priorities and translated increased public spending into measurable benefits for Nigerians.
Atoyebi said with the bold economic reforms and increased allocations to states and local governments, the country’s major challenge was no longer the availability of funds.
He said, “The greatest challenge facing the country is no longer the availability of resources but ensuring that every tier of government works with a shared vision and clearly defined priorities in governance and development.”
