The Federal Character Commission has announced that it would soon commence a nationwide infrastructure audit for all ongoing and abandoned projects in the country.

“Inadequate data on infrastructural distribution and spread of socio-economic projects in Nigeria has made it difficult to appraise even distribution of projects and programmes. The commission has the constitutional mandate to monitor the equitable allocation and distribution of projects and programmes, to ensure compliance, equity and fairness within the federation and evaluate the spread of socio-economic activities as represented by the location of projects in Nigeria.

“Such development programmes and projects include schools, hospitals, dams, road networks and power projects among others.” Dankaka also said that there is increasing collaboration between the FCC and other government agencies responsible for providing socio-economic amenities and infrastructural facilities.

“Various MDAs such as Ministries of Transport, Education, Health, Works, Power and Housing, Bureau of Statistics, Budget Office of the Federation and other ad-hoc intervention programs of government are now working closely with us on the need to imbibe the spirit of federal character as they embark on capital projects across the country.

“It is in that regard that when I assumed office and visited the Minister for Budget and National Planning, our request was for the inclusion and involvement in bilateral budget discussions with MDAs in the annual budget defence process. This will enable us to provide MDAs on how best to allocate resources for projects”, she said.
