The Governance and Social Accountability Officer, Aziz Mahmoud highlighted that it is essential on the part of the Assembly members to keep track of infrastructural projects in the Assembly.

The training was specially tailored to meet the needs of some selected STMA’S Open Government Partnership (OGP) Multistakeholder Forum, by bringing together and equipping a diverse group of stakeholders with the necessary skills and knowledge to hold duty bearers accountable.
It was also aimed to elevate the quality of governance and promote responsible stewardship within the metropolis.
