The Federal Government (FG) has launched the Presidential Delivery Tracker (PDT) and the Central Delivery Coordinating Unit (CDCU) website to enable citizens to monitor the implementation of government projects nationwide. The Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Boss Mustapha unveiled the platforms on Tuesday in Abuja, stating that the platforms were created to track and report the implementation of policies, programmes and projects of Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) with the aim of achieving the 9 priority goals of President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.


The SGF said, “The PDT/CDCU App is a co-creation platform that aims to connect citizens to governance in Nigeria by increasing citizens’ access to the federal government’s presidential priority policies, programmes and projects.

“The goal of the PDT/CDCU is to promote transparency and expand access to reporting on presidential priority policies, programmes and projects. This is by incorporating citizens as the third layer of reporting to offer vital information that will facilitate effective service delivery.

“Over the last two years, the PDT/CDCU has successfully driven the federal government’s delivery initiative to incorporate a systematic feedback mechanism from the citizens into the design and operationalisation of its Performance Management System. This is in recognition of the critical roles of the citizens in promoting inclusive and citizen-centred governance”.

According to him, the ‘Citizens App’ and the website will ensure that Nigerians can participate, monitor and provide accurate feedback on the implementation of government programmes and projects in their communities.

He also said, “The CDCU intends to empower citizens to make their voices heard, build a citizens engagement programme that works and participation that increases benefits if discussed with the people”.
