Eko Hot Blog reports that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has established a special presidential panel on Social Investment Programmes Agency (NSIPA) following a six-week suspension of all programmes administered by the agency.

The latest development was made known in a statement issued on Saturday by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale.

The suspension of the NSIPA programmes results from an ongoing investigation into alleged misconduct in the management of the agency and its programs.

“President Tinubu anticipates that this Special Presidential Panel will validate the confidence reposed in it by winning back all lost public confidence in these vital programmes over the years by ushering in a new era of operation based on open and accountable governance frameworks that will prove impervious to abuse and incompetence for the exclusive benefit of disadvantaged households across our nation.”
