CSO Hails Tinubu For Appointing Tsenyil NCDC MD

A Coalition of Civil Society Groups for Efficiency in Governance, led by Empowerment for Unemployed Youth Initiative (EUYI) has praised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for appointing Dr. Cyril
Tsenyil as the Managing Director (MD) of North Central Development Commission (NCDC).

Dr. Cyril Tsenyil, a former Accountant General of Plateau State for 8 years, was credited with transforming the Plateau State revenue generation, collection and accounting system through revolutionary systemic overhaul and radical digitisation, which led to an exponential increase in revenue generation, blocking leakages and saving over 40% cost in revenue generation.

Addressing a press conference on Thursday in Abuja, the duo of Prince Danesi Momoh and Comrade Igwe Ude-umanta, Convener and Co-Convener of the Coalition respectively, described the appointment as a fitting assignment for a capable and unblemished technocrat with a vast wealth of experience to drive the renewed hope agenda of the current administration.

According to the text, “last week, His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR appointed the leadership of the newly established North Central Development Commission (NCDC), making Dr. Cyril Tsenyil its Managing Director. This again, is a clear demonstration of Mr. President’s renowned ability in leadership recruitment.

“Dr. Tsenyil is a round peg in a round hole. We congratulate him very warmly and thank Mr. President for finding him worthy of this important national assignment. It is our heartfelt expectation that he will bring to bear his daring innovations as the Accountant General of Plateau State to drive development in NCDC in order to achieve its core mandate.

“Indeed, the NCDC which is a development commission deserves a technocrat like Dr. Tsenyil. With an experience which spans over 3 decades in accounting, auditing, policy initiation, formulation and implementation as well as fund management, project management and regulatory compliance, the NCDC is set to move with speed, precision and in the right direction under his leadership. We look forward to an era of developmental innovations at the NCDC.

“Dr. Tsenyil is both an intellectual, scholar, teacher, a resource person, a visionary, an excellent communicator and a perfect gentleman to the core. With these versatile skills and abilities, his leadership skills can not be questioned. We are indeed grateful to Mr. President for once again proving that he’s the best talent hunter globally.

“In fact, no other kind of credentials could have been better matched to that of Dr. Cyril Tsenyil for the job of the Managing Director of the North Central Development Commission. It is therefore very annoying to read a poorly scripted and illogical statement issued by a completely unknown group and persons, Concerned Plateau Youth Forum alleging political influence, favouritism, cronyism, incompetence and absence of broad-based representation.

“Nothing can be more laughable than these kinds of claims. This is absolute gibberish and should not be honoured with a response but it is important to state that the group in question including one Pam Danladi who claims to be their leader are obscure and insignificant figures who lack the pedigree to speak for the people of Plateau State and by extension the good people of North Central Nigeria. They must, therefore, not be taken seriously.

“Once again, we appreciate President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for establishing NCDC and making the finest of appointments for the growth and development of the region. We congratulate Dr. Cyril Tsenyil and urge him to have his eyes on the ball as he has always done and not be distracted by charlatans”, the text concluded.
