Tinubu sets up economic advisory committee

President Bola Tinubu has established an economic advisory committee, comprising representatives from the federal government, sub-national entities, and the private sector.

This decision was announced following a meeting with key stakeholders at the State House in Abuja on Sunday evening.

Tinubu emphasized the committee’s objective to implement “additional efforts” aimed at stabilizing the economy and securing a prosperous economic future for Nigerians.

He underscored the importance of assessing both successful and unsuccessful economic strategies to revitalize the economy, with a focus on addressing the needs of all citizens, including students, parents, farmers, and traders.

Acknowledging that challenges persist, Tinubu expressed commitment to alleviating the plight of disadvantaged Nigerians and providing reassurance that economic recovery is underway.

While recognizing that the committee does not have all the solutions, Tinubu assured Nigerians of their dedication to formulating a comprehensive economic plan for the nation’s future.

The meeting was attended by prominent figures including Aliko Dangote, Tony Elumelu, Abdulsamad Rabiu, Segun Ajayi-Kadir, Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State, and Governor Chuwkuma Soludo of Anambra State.
