On Monday, the Bola Ahmed Tinubu administration unveiled its eight-point plan for developing the Nigerian economy and its people.
In an interview with State House reporters on Monday at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun, listed the eight issues.
Fighting corruption, upholding the rule of law, ensuring food security, eradicating poverty, fostering economic growth and job creation, and ensuring the safety of Nigerians and companies are just a few of the priorities listed by Edun.
He said: “Other areas of focus by the Tinubu administration include access to Capital, particularly consumer credit; Inclusivity in all its dimensions, particularly as regards youth and women; improving security, improving the playing field that people and particularly companies operate; rule of law; and fighting corruption.
“It’s around those metrics that we plan, and the targets of what will be delivered in the next three years or so were identified, discussed, and input was given by various ministers.
“We’ll now go away with marching orders to refine further the targets in particular and within which to start rolling out policies and programmes to turn around the economy and make things better for all Nigerians.”
