Jonathan contemplates ceding projects, policies execution to economic team

Sun news

To have concrete results in the next four years, President Goodluck Jonathan might be contemplating saddling the National Economic Management Team (NEMT) with the responsibilities of coordinating key developmental projects, it was learnt.

It would be recalled that President Jonathan had announced earlier in the year that he would henceforth chair the NEMT which was before now headed by finance minister with other members drawn from different sectors of the economy. A top presidency source hinted yesterday that President Jonathan was keen on driving the economy in the direction of growth and development in the first year of his four years administration and was therefore strongly in favour of charging the economic team with the supervision of major economic policies and projects of government to achieve maximum results.
