I wish to commend the Federal Government for its unwavering determination to emancipate vulnerable Nigerians through social investment initiatives.

All National Social Investment Program (NSIP) initiatives established by the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari have so far had significant impact in Ajaokuta local government area and indeed, the entire 774 LGAs across the country.

The workaholic Kogi State NSIP focal person, Prince Suleiman Onyiekehi, has been instrumental in making sure the targeted audience for Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT) scheme are reached. He understands that the project is a pathway to have direct access to the poor and vulnerable, using improved social safety net systems for employment opportunities in all participating states and to provide targeted cash transfers to the poor, vulnerable and internally  displaced persons (IDPs) and this was exactly what he adopted for Ajaokuta LG which gave room for about 5,205 beneficiaries for Ajaokuta only. Kudos sir.

I wish to extol the most security conscious chairman of Ajaokuta LG, Hon Akaaba Aliyu Mustapha, who has created an enabling environment for peace and orderliness to thrive, making it easy for us to control such number of people while paying them. The hitch and glitch free process is as a result of effective security architecture and welfare provided for NSIP officials by the Council Chairman.

Mrs Faliat Yinka, the state Head of Unit, Condition Cash Transfer, deserves accolades for her effectiveness and resourcefulness. She is conscious about the fact that Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT) programme is one of the scheme that is led by the World Bank for the purpose of poverty alleviation and on this notion, she has always been performing her avowed responsibilities diligently to the best interest of the people of Ajaokuta LG and Kogi State at large.

Therefore, I wish encourage all the beneficiaries to key into savings in their various groups formed to avoid exuberant expenditure of the fund.

I sincerely wish to appreciate the security personnel for their utmost display of professionalism, civility and forthrightness which enabled me to succeed in coordinating the task placed on my shoulder as the HUPCCT Desk Officer for Ajaokuta Local Government.

Congratulations to all the beneficiaries.

Mallam Yakubu Shaidu
HUPCCT Desk Officer, National Social Investment Program (NSIP),
Ajaokuta Chapter.
