Bashir Bringa Musa is a Deputy Director in the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Abuja.

Going into the AIG Public Leaders Programme, Bashir had the expectation to gain valuable leadership skills and insights into public sector challenges. “The programme not only met but exceeded my expectations with its comprehensive curriculum and impactful learning experiences. The programme offered an immersive and enlightening experience, fostering a deep understanding of public leadership challenges and providing practical solutions. It was a transformative journey that enriched my professional perspective.”

PLP participants are required to undertake a capstone project within their respective organisations, applying the knowledge gained during the programme. Bashir’s capstone project centered on advancing digital technology and implementing practical measures that enhanced the perimeter security of the SSPC against illegal intrusions. This

The project was inspired by the incessant incidents of illegal intrusion o SSPC through the perimeter fence despite having security guards and a state-of-the-art Security Surveillance (CCTV) System. The project ensured real-time detection for a timely response and apprehension of intruders. The impact of Bashir’s project on security in SSPC is remarkable with increased confidence of staff in the ability of the security unit to protect lives and property, reduced cost of securing the perimeter and prevention of future security breaches and losses.

Bashir affirms that the programme has greatly impacted his work and career by equipping him with strategic leadership skills, a broader perspective on public issues, and effective problem-solving techniques.

He believes that the “AIG Public Leaders Programme is essential for the African public sector because it cultivates a cadre of skilled and visionary leaders. By addressing the unique challenges of the region, the program plays a crucial role in fostering sustainable development, good governance, and effective public service delivery.”
