Economic expert seeks redesign of FG’s cash transfer programme

Uche Uwaleke, a professor and President of the Capital Market Academics of Nigeria, has formally called for a redesign of the Federal Government’s cash transfer programme. Speaking in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria in Abuja, the economic expert urged authorities to reconsider the current structure of the initiative to improve its efficacy.

The recommendation highlights ongoing discourse regarding the implementation and impact of government-led social intervention schemes. By advocating for a policy shift, the expert suggests that the existing framework requires adjustments to better align with broader economic objectives and to ensure the programme effectively reaches its intended beneficiaries.
