Jisalo stated, “With the Renewed Hope Agenda, numerous projects are underway for the benefit of Nigerians. The Zonal Intervention Fund, which totals ₦100 billion annually, is allocated to senatorial districts and is used for constituency projects managed by National Assembly members under the oversight of my ministry.”
He emphasized that President Tinubu has mandated a rigorous assessment process before any payments are made to ensure accountability and proper fund utilization. “The president has instructed that we must inspect and evaluate projects before any payments are released to contractors,” Jisalo said.
The minister clarified that while National Assembly members propose the projects, they are managed under the ministry’s supervision, highlighting the effective collaboration between the National Assembly and the Ministry of Special Duties.
Jisalo also announced that additional projects will be completed by the end of the year under the Renewed Hope Agenda. He urged Nigerian youth to reconsider participating in the planned August 1 protest, warning that it could worsen hunger and result in property damage.
Furthermore, Jisalo used the briefing to explain the broader responsibilities of his ministry. “I noticed that many Nigerians are unaware of the ministry’s role. The Special Duties Office acts as an extension of the presidency, with all ministry reports going through it to the president,” he explained.
