President Goodluck Jonathan has been commended for not deviating significantly from the policies of his predecessor, late Musa Yar’Adua, in his seven-point agenda.
A group, Joint Governance Vanguard (JGV), which comprises entrepreneurs,
professionals, rights activists and members of the Diaspora which made the commendation in Abuja, observed that the president, rather, improved on them with what he described as practical proofs cutting across all the sectors of the economy.
The coordinator of the group, Mr Emem Coffie, who spoke with Abuja Xtra, noted that Jonathan deserved commendation for recording tremendous achievements in the midst of insurgency and distractions.
Disclosing that his group was committed to re-engineering a new era of policy consistency as well as creation of platform for developing and harnessing the potentials of the citizens, he urged the president to inaugurate conference of professionals, which would assist in charting a 30-year policy direction for the country in line with the Vision 20 20-20 and the transformation agenda.
Coffie noted that the move would ensure seamless articulation of policies that would engender development, economic growth and well-being for the country and its citizens and made a case for the proposed team to include industry giants, technocrats and foreign financial experts.
The coordinator wondered if the groups assembled by previous governments were able to adequately involve the private sector in policy formulation.
