The Executive Vice Chairman/CEO, National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure (NASENI), Mr. Khalil Suleiman Halilu, has said that achieving the Agency’s goals require a high level of professional proficiency and technical expertise in procurement management.

Halilu who said this call is essential in order to achieve the overall mandate and goals of the agency, stated that the Agency wanted to be the best in everything it does in order to deliver quality services to achieve the overall goals of Mr. President’s Renewed Hope Agenda.

He spoke while presenting his welcome address at the opening ceremony of the 2024 three-day in-house training for procurement officers and other participating staff from NASENI system-wide, which commenced on Tuesday in Abuja.

The EVC/CEO while highlighting the importance of the training, said it was designed to equip officers involved in procurement with the professional capacity needed to manage NASENI’s procurement processes effectively and in full compliance with the Public Procurement Act 2007.

While assuring that NASENI was committed to complying with everything outlined in the Act, he said “the importance of the workshop cannot be overstated, particularly for newly hired or deployed officers.
