National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has honoured Lucy James Abagi, chief executive officer of the Public and Private Development Centre (PPDC), with its National Recognition Award for Transparency and Good Governance.

The ceremony took place yesterday at the PPDC headquarters in Abuja.

NANs national director of Research and Innovation, Comrade Sadiq S.K. Zango, said the award was more than a courtesy visit.

“We are here to celebrate a national figure whose leadership has redefined the standards of governance, accountability and public service,” Zango said.

He praised Abagi’s stewardship at PPDC, describing her as a “beacon of hope” in a country where integrity in governance is urgently needed.

“Through your tireless advocacy for transparency and civic participation, you have built platforms that empower citizens, strengthen institutions and protect democratic ideals,” he added.

Also,Comrade Salamatu Dawood, chairperson of NAUS CMC FCT, highlighted Abagi’s courage and commitment to service.

“Leadership is not defined by power, but by the courage to speak truth, the will to serve, and the consistency to build systems that outlive individuals,” Dawood said.

She stressed that the recognition symbolises the admiration of millions of Nigerian students who value accountability and fairness in governance.

In her response Abagi said she was deeply honoured to receive the award from NANS, describing it as “profoundly significant.”

“At PPDC, our journey has always been guided by one conviction — when citizens are empowered with knowledge, they can transform systems that once felt immovable,” she said.

She cited PPDC initiatives such as Budeshi, which opens up procurement data, and the Access to Justice Programme, which provides representation for marginalised groups.

She also highlighted the Digital Academy for Youth, which equips young Nigerians with skills for leadership and innovation.

Abagi said the recognition was even more powerful because it came from students.

“You, the leaders of tomorrow, are saying clearly that transparency is not optional. It is central to the Nigeria you want to inherit and shape,” she said.
