The Aig-Imoukhuede Foundation has launched the fourth cohort of the AIG Public Leaders Programme.
This initiative done in partnership with the Blavatnik School of Government, University of Oxford has empowered 169 public sector leaders since 2021 advancing the Foundation’s mission to train 3,000 public sector leaders by 2030, equipping them with the essential skills to drive impactful reforms and strengthen service delivery in their Ministries, Departments, and Agencies.
The AIG PLP is an executive training programme that builds the capabilities of African public sector leaders, positioning them to deliver measurable results and foster cultures of integrity, excellence, and innovation.
The Foundation’s vision is to cultivate a new generation of leaders who can address complex challenges, implementing sustainable reforms that resonate across communities.
The current cohort, which includes participants from Ghana and Kenya commenced virtual classes and included an intensive, one-week residential programme in Abuja.
During this time, participants will engage with the faculty from the Blavatnik School, Oxford, gaining strategic insights and practical tools to excel in their roles and to instil change within their MDAs.
Previous members of the programme include Dr Ibiwunmi Olokun, a Medical Officer of Health and Primary Health Care Coordinator at the Lagos State Primary Healthcare Board and a member of Cohort 3 of the programme who led a project at her Primary Healthcare Centre that reduced patient waiting times from 70 minutes to 30 minutes.
This successful model is now being adopted in other units and facilities within her health district in Lagos State.
Additionally, Mohammed Ahmed, Director and Chief of Staff to the CEO of the Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit and a Cohort 1 AIG PLP alumnus has initiated a reform project focused on fostering partnerships between the government and the private sector to enhance financial intelligence aimed at tackling financial crimes.
“Today, his efforts are reshaping financial crime prevention strategies in Nigeria through strategic public-private collaborations that empower the nation to address complex financial crimes more effectively,” the Foundation said.
