Development Expert Hails Tinubu For Launching Citizens Delivery Tracker App

A development expert, Oriyomi Anthony, has commended President Bola Tinubu-led administration for launching the Citizens’ Delivery Tracker application which gives access to the Nigerian people about the policies of the federal government.

The app was designed to “Provide citizens with information on priority projects, policies, and programmes of the Federal Government and enable them to give real-time feedback on their assessment of governments performance on the implementation of its policies, projects, and programmes from anywhere they are in the country”.

According to the statement titled, ‘With CDCU’s Delivery Tracker, Tinubu gives voice to the otherwise voiceless’, Anthony said he was convinced Tinubu’s government meant business to operate the country with the private sector for launching the tracker that would relate with Nigerians.

“For the first time, I see a government that wants to run the country with some private sector mindset, giving the impression that government business will be taken more seriously, which I hope will indeed be the case,” Anthony said.

“Before an employee accepts a role in any organisation, he/she must read through the job description or expectations for the role. To avoid any confusion, most employers spell out job expectations in black and white, and when an employee takes up such job offers it is because they are sure that they can meet the set deliverables.

“Some organisations even take it a step further by setting performance indicators for each deliverable, marking out a time when each indicator would be evaluated to see if the employee is making progress towards it or has achieved it.

“If any cases of non-performance or underperformance are found, appropriate interventions are deployed, from capacity building to mentoring to reprimands and in irredeemable cases, disengagement. On the other hand, if the employee has done well in meeting all deliverables, they are celebrated, promoted, and/or rewarded with higher pay.
“This strategy has helped many organisations achieve their goals and has increasingly become accepted worldwide as a way to monitor and evaluate employee performance. Non-profit organisations also deploy monitoring and evaluation as an essential tool for tracking their impact on the communities they serve.”
