President Buhari's policy to lift 100 million Nigerians out of poverty in ten years starts with identifying those most in need of Social Protection. It's why our teams work hard targeting the poor & vulnerable for enrolment into Nigeria's National Social Registry.

Great to meet @iapera, Head of the National Social Safety Nets Coordinating Office. Use of new tech to build a comprehensive social register with support from @DFIDNigeria & #UKAid to target govt services at the poorest and most vulnerable. Looking forward to progress!

Do we need a revolution? Yes! but not a students demonstration. Those were popular in the 80s and early 90s.What we need is intellectual revolution to gradually change the mind set of our young ones towards developing a solid intellectual base for our great country.

One proud moment for our efforts at building the social register for the poor and vulnerable in Nigeria. The president in his speech referred to the register and how we can disaggregate it by sex, vocation, disability etc.
