The Minister of State, Budget and National Planning, Clem Agba has revealed plans by the federal government to launch a web application to be christened ‘Eye-Mark’, aimed at empowering Nigerians to report any poorly executed government projects to the government.
He also disagreed with reports that the health and educational sectors of the economy were underfunded.
The minister made this known recently, while speaking with THISDAY at a two-day National Assembly/Budget Office of the Federation of Nigeria (BOF) retreat holding in Lagos.
According to him, the federal government was planning on using technology, “so that we get Nigerians to be the one to monitor and evaluate projects for us.”

The Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige has said the National Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) has lost all moral and legal grounds to continue its seven-day-old strike, and urged them to call off the action.
In a statement in Abuja yesterday, Ngige said the federal government has not only “substantially met the seven-point demand by NARD, it has also demonstrated transparency in their implementation.”
But in a swift response, NARD has faulted Ngige’s position, saying that house officers’ payments across the nation were flawed with irregularities.
But Ngige noted: “The House officers have started receiving their payments in the federal government teaching hospitals and federal medical centres across the federation. I spoke with the Accountant General of the Federation as well as with two Chief medical directors of teaching hospitals this morning and they confirmed payment to house officers.
