Background

Background.
The federal government through the mechanism Conditional Grants Scheme (CGS) to LGAs aims to fast-track achievement of the MDGs in Nigeria by building the capacity and planning competence of the 113 participating LGAs. This will support the scale-up of MDGs investments and direct resource and policy attention towards priority sectors, weak indicators and service delivery bottlenecks. In increasing the earning rate, coordination and impact of interventions a genuine partnership between the three tiers of government and with local communities is expected to evolve. These developments will be stimulated by internal improvements in management and operations, and catalysed by a technical assistant domiciled in each participating LGA as well as a zonal technical assistant/support for each geo-political zone of the country.

The Office of the Special Assistant to the President on MDGs (OSSAP-MDGs) with the support of UNDP seeks to shortlist six zonal technical assistants for this assignment .
