Tinubu to Review Ministers’ Performance Scorecards Ahead of Second Anniversary

As President Bola Tinubu’s second anniversary in office approaches on May 29, the Central Results Delivery and Coordination Unit (CDCU) is finalizing a comprehensive set of ministerial scorecards evaluating the performance of various ministries for the first quarter of 2025, multiple presidency sources revealed on Tuesday.

The confidential assessment, expected to be submitted to the President “any time from now,” is generating increased scrutiny for underperforming ministries, according to a senior aide. The CDCU, tasked with quarterly evaluations of ministerial performance, has been verifying reports submitted by ministries via a secure portal last month. These reports detail projects and policy milestones, measured against performance bonds signed by ministers during the October 2023 cabinet retreat.

Led by Hadiza Bala-Usman, the CDCU has been meticulously reviewing submissions and assigning scores. Sources, speaking anonymously due to the sensitive nature of the matter, indicated that the final report is nearing completion and will soon reach the President’s desk. One insider described the performance of many ministers as “average,” with only a few, including the Minister of Works, scoring above average. “Several others performed poorly in critical metrics,” the source noted.

While immediate action against underperforming ministers is not anticipated, the scorecards will provide President Tinubu with up-to-date insights into his cabinet’s effectiveness, enabling targeted engagements to address areas needing improvement. A senior presidency official explained, “Ministries uploaded evidence of their activities and projects to the CDCU portal based on self-set deliverables. The CDCU has conducted detailed verifications and assigned scores accordingly, with the final report intended for the President.”

The initiative aligns with President Tinubu’s emphasis on accountability, as articulated during the November 1, 2023, Cabinet Retreat. “If you are performing, nothing to fear. If you miss the objective, we’ll review it. If no performance, you leave us. No one is an island, and the buck stops on my desk,” he stated, underscoring that ministers’ retention hinges on their quarterly performance reviews.

The forthcoming report is expected to play a pivotal role in shaping the administration’s mid-term strategy as it navigates its second year in office.
