Eight months after the 29th Nigerian Economic Summit, the Federal Executive Council (FEC) is yet to receive the much-anticipated recommendations from the private sector for comprehensive economic reforms.

These recommendations, which emerged from intensive discussions among industry leaders, policymakers, and economic experts at the NES29 held in October 2023, are crucial for guiding Nigeria toward sustainable economic growth and development. The summit’s primary focus was on how the government can implement strategic fiscal reforms to enhance economic stability and stimulate growth.

The recommendations presented at the summit are comprehensive and multifaceted, addressing key areas critical to Nigeria’s economic progress. They propose actionable strategies for mobilizing private sector funds to finance public infrastructure projects, which are essential for reducing unemployment and combating insecurity.

Additionally, the recommendations emphasise improving healthcare delivery systems, which is vital for fostering a healthy workforce and ensuring overall societal well-being. By addressing these pressing issues, the private sector aims to create a more conducive environment for economic activities and development.

The chairman of the Nigerian Economic Summit Group (NESG), Mr Niyi Yusuf, raised the issue yesterday at the inauguration of the joint planning committee for the 30th Nigerian Economic Summit (NES#30) in Abuja.

Niyi urged the minister of budget and economic planning, Atiku Bagudu, to present the outcomes of the 29th Nigerian Economic Summit to the Federal Executive Council for consideration and integration into government plans and programmes. He said that would help to maximise the benefits of the ongoing collaboration between the private sector and government for Nigeria’s economic development.

Attracting foreign direct investment (FDI) is another significant aspect of the recommendations. The private sector leaders have outlined measures that the government can adopt to make Nigeria an attractive destination for international investors.

Speakers at the 2023 summit stressed that the government should take measures to streamline regulatory frameworks, enhance transparency, and provide incentives for foreign businesses. Despite the urgency and importance of these recommendations, the delay in their submission to the FEC raises concerns about the pace of implementing necessary reforms.

However, the permanent secretary at the ministry of budget and planning Engr. Nebeolisa Anako who represented Senator Bagudu at the media conference said the ministry is making efforts to present the report of the 2023 summit to FEC.

Nigeria is grappling with rising unemployment, income disparity, and multidimensional poverty. “These challenges are worsened by an uneven allocation of resources, macroeconomic instability, and institutional deficiencies.

Anako and Olusanya said the 30th summit will inspire deliberations that mobilise leaders to create opportunities for both present and future generations.

They agreed that the NES #30 is a testament to an enduring legacy and forward-looking vision for fostering an inclusive, innovative, and prosperous future for Africa through Nigeria’s leadership.
