About Step Up Nigeria

In order for Nigeria to lift millions of its citizens from poverty, we need to first of all improve the quality of governance. This blog discusses ways to ‘Step Up’ governance in Nigeria such as reducing corruption, promoting transparency and accountability in the provision of public services and strengthening citizen’s demand for an improvement in public service delivery.

The aim of this blog is to present analysis and views on current governance issues in Nigeria.

Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala’s return good for Nigeria

Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala was among the ministers confirmed yesterday by the Senate. I am thrilled by this development as Nigeria would greatly benefit from her relevant experience and skills. More importantly, I am pleased with her focus areas which include job creation, increasing the ease of doing business in Nigeria and infrastructural development.
I hope she will be allowed to implement these policies effectively which I believe will improve the economy and help move Nigeria forward.
