The Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC) has been presented with the Federal Government’s level five platinum award for outstanding performance in corporate governance and accountability.
The award, given by the Bureau of Public Service Reforms (BPSR) is based on the Corporation’s outstanding score of 93 per cent in the BPSR’s Self-Assessment Tool (SAT) that was deployed to Federal Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) to assess and enhance service delivery.
Presenting the award to the Corporation, Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Boss Mustapha represented by the Special Adviser to the President on Policy and Coordination, Dr Habiba Lawal, congratulated the Board, Management and Staff of the NDIC for the courage and commitment during the exercise.
She said that the Corporation’s exceptional achievement serves as an impetus for other government agencies to take the opportunity of the BPSR Self-Assessment Tool to assess their strengths, weaknesses and employ the outcome of the self-evaluation to achieve the Federal Government’s objectives of effective service delivery to the citizenry.
