Former Kwara State Women's Affairs Commissioner to Lead Think Tank on Future Governance
Dr. Mopelola Abdulmalik Bashir, the immediate past commissioner for Women's Affairs in Kwara State, has been appointed to lead a think tank tasked with developing a policy document on the future of politics and governance in the state, as reported by Punch.
In a statement by the convener of 'Kwara Must Change', a pro-democracy group in the state, Abdulrazaq Hamzat, he described the O to ge movement that brought the present administration into office as a new start for Kwara State. He emphasized that people expect every successive government to do better than the last.
The statement also outlined the group's aim to develop a policy direction for the next administration. This includes consolidating the gains of the political liberation, strengthening weaknesses identified in the current political system, expanding the scope of governance coverage, enhancing the economic capacity of the state, sustaining a data-based developmental approach, building more human capacity, and rebuilding political capacity.
He also said that the pro-democracy group decided to set up the think tank, headed by Bashir; a political activist, to develop a policy document for the post o to ge administration, which it themed, post o to ge project (POP2027).
According to Hamzat, Mopelola led POP2027 think tank will not only produce a policy document, the committee will also develop an implementation framework, Monitoring and observation template as well as priority focus on the scale of preference.
“Kwara Must Change is planning for the future by making this significant effort to solidify and guide future direction in the post otoge era rather than be stuck in the Otoge movement's initial success.
“Kwara Must Change is, therefore, committed to building a development based polity, where issues of governance and development is the driving force of our politics.”
