…….As NTAC DG/CEO Leads Monitoring Mission to Assess Volunteer Impact, Welfare and Contributions in Liberia.
The Nigerian Technical Aid Corps (NTAC), Ministry of Foreign Affairs, has undertaken a Monitoring and Evaluation Mission to the Republic of Liberia to assess the performance, impact and welfare of Nigerian Technical Aid Corps Volunteers serving in the country.
The mission, led by the Director-General/Chief Executive Officer of NTAC, Rt. Hon. Yusuf Buba Yakub, provided an opportunity for direct engagement with the Volunteers, review of their assignments and contributions, identification of challenges, and assessment of areas requiring further institutional support.
The exercise is part of NTAC’s efforts to ensure that the deployment of Nigerian professionals remains responsive to the development priorities of partner countries and delivers meaningful outcomes through technical assistance, knowledge transfer and human-capital development.
It also reflects Nigeria’s commitment to South-South Cooperation and development diplomacy, in line with the foreign policy direction of the Administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, particularly the 4-D Foreign Policy Agenda of Democracy, Development, Demography and Diaspora, and the Renewed Hope Agenda of the Federal Government.

Speaking on behalf of the Nigerian Volunteers in Liberia, the Team Lead, Mr. Ajibe Yusuf Yahaya, expressed appreciation to the NTAC Director-General/CEO for his continued support and attention to the welfare and professional development of the Volunteers.
Mr. Yahaya noted that the leadership’s encouragement had boosted the morale and commitment of the Volunteers, assuring the NTAC Management of their continued dedication to duty and commitment to upholding the good name and reputation of Nigeria in Liberia.
He also commended the Monitoring and Evaluation Mission, noting that the engagement demonstrated NTAC’s commitment to the performance, contributions and welfare of Nigerian Volunteers serving abroad.
NIGERIA–LIBERIA TECHNICAL COOPERATION
The mission further reinforced the longstanding relationship between Nigeria and Liberia, particularly in technical cooperation, human-capital development, knowledge exchange and institutional collaboration.
NTAC will continue to strengthen its monitoring and evaluation processes to ensure that Volunteers effectively deliver on their mandates, while their deployments remain aligned with the development needs of partner countries.
The Corps appreciates the Government and people of the Republic of Liberia for the warm reception accorded the Nigerian delegation and for their continued cooperation and support for Nigerian Volunteers serving in the country.
The engagement underscores Nigeria’s commitment to sustaining mutually beneficial technical cooperation with Liberia and strengthening professional and institutional partnerships in furtherance of development and stronger African relations.
