All Ministers to sign performance bond with Tinubu in 2024 – Presidential aide, Bala Usman

President Bola Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Policy
Coordination, Hadiza Bala Usman, on Tuesday said all ministers would sign a
performance bond with the President.

Usman explained that the bond would detail what is expected
of the ministers in 2024.

Featuring on TVC, the presidential aide said the bond would
be used to track each minister from next year.

She said the bond will contain key performance indicators
(KPIs) that would be reviewed quarterly.

According to Usman: “We are looking to commence an
assessment of the respective ministers in January 2024. We are going to have
quarterly assessments of performance which will culminate in an annual score
card.

“In addition to that, we are going to have a cabinet retreat
in November with Mr. President. At the end, this would culminate in the
performance bond that will be signed by each ministry.

“Every minister and the permanent secretary would sign a
performance bond with the president which would detail what they are expected
to do within the one year 2024 budget cycle.

“And that performance bond is what we are going to use to
track the performance of that minister.

“One of the things that we are keen to ensure, and Mr.
President has clearly given us that directive is that performance is a very
important thing.

“He has made a commitment to Nigerians and that commitment
is what he is going to ensure is delivered by his respective appointees.”
