Checks on the activities of the Steering Committee of NPRGS, chaired by  Vice President Yemi Osinbajo indicated that by adopting a different approach based on a common-sense strategy, the committee’s interventions have impacted millions of Nigerians across different sectors in less than a year of operations.

Confirming the development, the spokesman to the vice president, Mr Laolu Akande in a media update stated noted that “almost two million vulnerable Nigerians have been impacted by various projects implemented by the NPRGS Committee for the year 2022 in agriculture, rural roads construction and skills and vocational training.”

Akande recalled that Prof. Osinbajo had noted in a meeting with committee members that “how the Buhari administration plans to lift 100 million Nigerians out of poverty in 10 years will not be based on a business-as-usual approach, but a very simple, common-sense strategy that will deliver the results as the President promised.”

He explained that it was the approach adopted by the Committee led by the VP that resulted in the significant progress made by it within a very short period of time.
