Officials said the partnership will help strengthen monitoring and evaluation mechanisms, enabling ministries, departments and agencies MDAs to track progress, identify challenges and improve the delivery of key government programmes. The initiative aligns with ongoing efforts by the Nigerian government to modernise public administration, promote evidence-based policymaking and establish a culture of performance-driven governance.
