Governor Dauda Lawal Advocates for Transparency in Governance

At an All Progressives Congress (APC) stakeholders' engagement, Governor Dauda Lawal proposed a significant measure to enhance transparency in governance by suggesting the publication of contract beneficiaries, project details, and amounts awarded. This initiative aims to inform the public and stakeholders about who received contracts and whether projects were executed as specified.

Governor Lawal rejected claims of neglecting party members, acknowledging a need for better strategic communication. He posed critical questions about governance priorities, urging that the focus should be on the broader population's benefits rather than individual gains.

Lawal stressed that political parties should aim to improve citizens' lives through tangible outcomes such as infrastructure development and enhanced public services. He noted that upon taking office on May 29, 2023, his administration faced significant challenges, including unpaid examination fees that barred thousands of students from participating in the 2023 WAEC examination.
