The Federal Government has established a committee to investigate parastatals, agencies, and commissions established since 2014.
In November 2021, the government inaugurated two subcommittees on the implementation of the whitepaper on the restructuring of ministries, departments, and agencies to reduce the cost of governance, chaired by Alhaji Bukar Aji, Amal Pepple, and Oladapo Afolabi, former heads of service of the Federation.
The second committee was to review new parastatals, agencies and commissions created after the submission of the report on restructuring.
Speaking at the short ceremony on Friday in Abuja, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Boss Mustapha, said the committee headed by the former Head of Service of the Federation, Mrs. Ebele Okeke, has six weeks to submit report so the process of implementation can begin after approval by the Federal Executive Council (FEC).
