Tinubu said he had asked his special adviser on policy and coordination, Hadiza Bala Usman, to immediately reactivate the tracking system in a way that maximally leverages on cutting-edge digital innovation to provide real time oversight capability for the benefit of all Nigerians.
According to a statement by presidential spokesman, Ajuri Ngelale, President Tinubu also redefined the priority areas of his administration as:
“Reform the economy to deliver sustained inclusive growth, strengthen national security for peace and prosperity, boost agriculture to achieve food security, unlock energy and natural resources for sustainable development, enhance infrastructure and transportation as enablers of growth, focus on education, health and social investment as essential pillars of development, accelerate diversification through industrialization, digitization, creative arts, manufacturing & innovation, and improve governance for effective service delivery.
The president further implored all members of his cabinet to work very hard to meet the expectations of Nigerians.
The climax of the retreat was the signing of performance bonds by ministers and permanent secretaries alongside Tinubu, who charged all implementing authorities to unfailingly demonstrate diligence, innovative thinking, commitment, and an unrelenting focus on results.
