Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, Sadiya Umar Farouq, has confirmed taking control of the federal government’s Social Investment Programmes .
The Minister, who made this known via Twitter on Monday, said she met with Maryam Uwais, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Social Investment for crucial briefing on the programme. DAILY POST reports that until October 1, the SIP was being coordinated by the office of Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo.President Buhari had announced that the newly-created ministry would be in charge of the scheme.
The minister tweeted: “It is a busy week. Moving forward, I met with the SSA to President Buhari on NSIP.“NSIP manages Social Investment Programmes in Nigeria and it is presently under the purview of the Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management, and Social Development,” she tweeted.
Even if you people take over his position as long as you can't take his life, he would still be the next presido
Hahahaha, ntooo!!!
ProfOsinbajo ole ije 🤷🏾♂️
Journalists should stop making something out of nothing. The Vice President is busy doing other patriotic duties for this country, he is not perturbed about institutionalizing the NSIP, what matters to him is achieving results
Nothing spoil. The aim of the Federal Government before the Vice President came up with the initiative is to assuage the plight of the downtrodden and that still remained the agenda. The VP will be happy to see the programme being institutionalized.
Good for him,they want to render him useless
Stupid brown envelop journalism
When will Nigeria Journalism ever get their thing's together, how can you not know what it means to instutionalise a working policies?
Taking over how? the SIPs has been institutionalized and has to be under the supervision of a minster why this misleading headline to the people
As misleading as ever, it should be Osinbajo policy get instutionalise
Misleading headline and fake news
What kind of stupid headline is this?
