PROGRESS REPORT OF THE ANNUAL GENERAL ASSEMBLY (AGA) OF NEMA
- POST GO NORTH CONSULTATION (VISION 5015)

These include the Post-Go-North Consultation in Jos and the Nigeria Sahel Consultation at Gombe all in the effort to sustain the momentum and ensure we keep track on the goal.
The Post Go-North Consultation held from Feb. 22-24 at the Nigeria Centre for Global Harvest, NEMA Headquarters, Jos. The focus was to advance the issues raised at the Special NIMEC that held last year with particular interest in engaging those who have made one commitment or the other during the Special edition of NIMEC. Part of the thrust was to delist Nigeria from UUPG list and to explore practical strategies to respond to the huge needs beckoning in the Sahel and North of Africa.

To the Glory of God, the following commitments were made for the engagement of Nigeria’s identified UUPGs:
