Mrs Amina Muhammed has been asked to take a bow after parrying questions thrown at her during screening for a ministerial position. She used the screening to harp on the need for Nigeria to integrate the new Sustainable Development Goals, SDGs, into its long term plans.
One of the issues brought up during her screening was the disparity in state’s access to conditional grants while she was the presidential aide on the MDGs. She however reacted to this that there was a widely agreed criteria regarding the distribution of grants.
The Nominee then pointed out that some of the disadvantaged states failed to meet those criteria for conditional grants as they were unable to provide documentation and what they intend to do with such funds.
Mrs. Muhammed however pointed out that her office was however able to build the capacity of those states.
