Nigeria Must Track Budget Spending & Evaluation to Ensure Projects Are Completed: Expert

This week, Nigeria's Finance Minister, Taiwo Oyedela, announced plans to introduce a tracking system for capital projects—aimed at keeping a closer eye on how funds are used and whether they deliver results.

Reacting to the news, Nicholas Agbo Ella, a former official at the Ministry of Petroleum Resources, told Sputnik Africa that this measure can enhance transparency of expenditures and business activities during projects' realization.

Moreover, community inspectors may control project execution in their areas, he noted.

"We need to have a platform where we could have feedback from the communities and interested stakeholders in terms of projects that are being recruited within their domain," Ella emphasized.
