All special advisers working in Sokoto state have been committed to a
performance bond by Governor Aminu Waziri Tambuwal.
This followed a meeting the Governor held with the recently-appointed
advisers in his office in Sokoto Wednesday.
Briefing reporters after the meeting, Tambuwal’s spokesman, Malam Imam
Imam, said committing the appointees to a bond will enhance accountability,
productivity and transparency in governance.
“The Governor tasked all the advisers to develop detailed and documented
strategies and operational plans to guide the implementation of Key
Performance Indicators (KPIs) in their areas of responsibilities.
“They are to also facilitate monitoring and evaluation units to support the
implementation of plans, tracking and reporting performance on the agreed
indicators.
“He made it clear for them to have understanding of the mandate of their
respective agencies, strategic and operational planning and the need to
focus on results delivery, rather than on inputs, activities and processes,
for development to be of relevance and benefit to the citizens,” Imam added.
While urging the appointees to make wide consultations in order to properly
gauge the needs of the people, Tambuwal urged them to make the welfare of
the people their top priority.
