The Minister of Budget and Economic Planning, Atiku Bagudu, has expressed dissatisfaction with the inadequate support from international development partners, noting that the government had anticipated greater assistance for its reform efforts to yield results. He says the international bodies have not provided enough support to consolidate the bold, courageous, and risky reforms undertaken by the current administration since its inception over a year ago. He advocated enhanced international development assistance to African countries, suggesting that it should be more proportional to their populations.
