dRPC has come to stay as a major policy actor in Nigeria. It's critical engagement with numerous public, private and civil society sectors in the country is unequalled and commendable. In a modest way, it is filling in the gaps previously occupied by state actors in policy making, implementation and monitoring and evaluation. dRPC's commitment to gender equity and promotion of inclusivity is commended. Within the limits of its resources, dRPC should extend its coverage
