NDIC emerges most outstanding public institution for 2012/2013

By on December 1, 2013

The Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC) has emerged the most outstanding public institution in terms of service delivery for 2012/2013.

The award is in the finance, trade and investment category of the 2012/2013 Service Delivery Awards for public institutions organised by the Independent Service Delivery Monitoring Group (ISDMG).
 
This was contained in a statement issued in Lagos by Hardi Birchi, the Head, Communications and Public Affairs of the Corporation.
According to the statement, the ISDMG, a civil society coalition, gave the award after an exercise based on public opinion polls.
It also said that the award came after a technical assessment on 300 public institutions through SMS, Internet and questionnaire survey.
Presenting the award, the Executive Director, ISDMG, Dr Chima Amadi, said that the NDIC got the award based on ratings by respondents in the core areas of assessment of public institutions.
He listed the areas covered by the poll as transparency and fiscal discipline, budget implementation, prompt response to enquiries and contributions to the economy.
The statement quoted Amadi as saying that the award was an expression of the high level performance, innovation, qualitative service delivery and citizens’ satisfaction.
Amadi said the award is an experiment to determine an appropriate feedback mechanism for public institutions.
It has evolved into an established window for institutions to determine the quality of service they render as well as a barometer for their operations.
Dr Alheri Bulus Nyako, the Director, Legal Department of NDIC, who received the award on behalf of the corporation, said that it coincided with the corporation’s recent launch of new corporate identity.
Nyako said that the award was a testimony to the corporation’s unrelenting commitment to discharging its mandate of protecting depositors.
“It also demonstrates the corporation’s commitment to the safety, soundness and stability of the financial system”, he said.
