Executive Director of the organization, Chinwe Ugwu who gave the hint in a press statement issued in Lagos, said the seven point agenda was very remarkable because it “focuses on the key issues affecting the nation and therefore needed to be brought to the knowledge of Nigerians through adequate publicity with aim of shoring up support for the administration.”
She noted that since the programme covered all the critical areas that had hampered the effective socio – economic development of the country, there was need for all and sundry to throw their full weight behind it in as a means of moving the nation forward.
“The seven point agenda as enunciated by president Yar’Adua has a wide ranging breadth and scope which focuses primarily on energy and power supply, agriculture, wealth creation, transportation, land law reforms, security and poverty eradication through education.”
She however, explained that “it was on that light that CREI has taken up the challenge to properly educate Nigerians on what the 7 point agenda intends to achieve and why it should be supported by all.”


According to the organization’s boss, the campaign which is billed to begin later this month would be flagged off in the federal capital territory Abuja and later extended to in all the states of the federation.
Ugwu further explained that the enlightenment campaign which will be executed through engagement of renowned bureaucrats and professionals will take the form of workshops, symposia, and open campaign in market places as well as in community meetings .
