Osinbajo praises Buhari’s strategy to solve Nigeria’s humanitarian crises
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has lauded the strategic roadmap of the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, emphasising the federal government’s readiness and commitment to its effective actualisation.
“Therefore, the federal government stands ready to support the actualisation of this roadmap every step of the way,” Mr Osinbajo said at the official inauguration of the strategic roadmap in Abuja.
The vice president stressed that the strategic roadmap (2021 to 2025) as formulated by the ministry was important as it is consistent with the national development plan.
“I am further delighted by the roadmap emphasis on establishing linkages with other government plans such as the national development plan by situating itself in a broader matrix of national planning,” added Mr Osinbajo. “The roadmap and by implication, the ministry is contributing to a climate of coherence, consistency and continuity across all spheres of governance.”
The vice president, represented by Adeola Rahman-Ipaye (the deputy chief of staff to the president), further urged stakeholders to collaborate with the ministry in bringing Nigeria closer to a socialist secure nation.
Also speaking, Sadiya Umar Farouq, Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, stated that all the agencies under her ministry were remarkably doing well.
According to her, in formulating the seven key strategic focal points of the strategic roadmap, nine key priority areas of Mr Buhari’s agenda were thoroughly analysed.
