The director-general pledged during a courtesy visit to the governor of Jigawa State, Malam Umar Namadi at the Jigawa State governor’s lodge in, Asokoro, Abuja, recently, according to a statement that was issued by BPE’s head of corporate communications, Amina Tukur Othman.

Okoh noted that BPE, as the economic reform agency of the federal government had in the past, supported other states in the country. He said that the bureau had carried out reforms in many sectors of the Nigerian economy that have brought about the establishment of organisations like the Economic & Financial Crimes Commission, National Pension Commission, Nigeria Electricity Regulatory Commission and many others.

Mr Okoh said he believes in the power of innovation, entrepreneurship, and private-sector investment to drive the economy. He said by harnessing the resources of the state and BPE, an enabling environment can be created to attract more investment to transform and build a future where opportunities abound for the people of Jigawa state to prosper.

BPE is an agency of the federal government with over 30 years’ experience in sector/enterprise reforms and asset optimisation in the country.
