The newly appointed National Programme Manager of the Government Enterprise and Empowerment Programme (GEEP), Hamza Ibrahim Baba, has begun his tenure with high-level courtesy visits aimed at forging strategic partnerships to strengthen the implementation of the programme under the National Social Investment Programme Agency (NSIPA).
In alignment with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, Mr. Baba visited the Honourable Minister of State for Education, Dr. Suwaibe Said, on Tuesday in Abuja. The discussions focused on potential collaboration to support grassroots women through the GEEP’s Trader Moni initiative, with an emphasis on financial inclusion and empowerment at the community level.
Baba also held talks with the Director-General of the National Directorate of Employment (NDE), H.E. Silas Agara, to identify avenues for joint efforts in empowering vulnerable groups and fostering entrepreneurship nationwide.
Both officials commended Baba’s swift and strategic outreach, describing his actions as a promising start toward strengthening social investment efforts across sectors. They reaffirmed their commitment to working closely with GEEP to deliver meaningful impact to underserved populations.
