“During
her tenure as SSAP MDGs, she demonstrated her capability as she adopted
pragmatic strategies and executed pro- poor projects that impacted lives
positively. She designed a workable framework for the execution of poverty
reduction initiatives including the Conditional Grants Scheme (CGS), Quick Win
projects among others using the Debt Relief Grants (DRGs). There is no doubt
that with her impressive profile and proven track record, she will be a great
asset to the federal cabinet”.
