We’ll Help Investors To Thrive – Shettima

Vice President Kashim Shettima has reassured Nigerian investors that the administration of President Bola Tinubu would give them the needed support to thrive and succeed in all their businesses across the country.

He told investors in Kano that the federal government would leave no stone unturned in ensuring that investors achieve their dreams.

Speaking yesterday when he visited the Mamuda Group, a Nigerian multi-industry conglomerate at their Kano headquarters, the Vice President in a statement by his spokesman, Stanley Nkwocha said with the efforts and commitments of President Tinubu, investors’ trust and confidence are gradually returning.

Shettima drew their attention to the government’s continued promotion of sustainability and progress for investment opportunities in Nigeria.

He expressed satisfaction and confidence in the developmental strides and initiatives of the company, observing that the story of Mamuda Group is one of resilience, zeal, and belief in the Nigerian dream.

“We want to commend you. The president speaks your language – the language of commerce, the language of business. Be rest assured that in the spirit of the Renewed Hope Agenda, we will partner with the manufacturing sector to further reposition the Nigerian economy,” he said.

He commended the group for being one of the largest employers of labour in Northern Nigeria, with about 13,000 employees, even as he expressed optimism that with the company’s upcoming developmental initiatives, its employment strength will reach 23,000 in no distant time.

Earlier, the chairman and chief executive officer of Mamuda Group, Hassan Hammoud, commended the leadership and vision that President Tinubu has brought to Nigeria, saying “the last couple of years has been undeniably challenging for our nation, with economic turbulence testing industries and individuals alike.

“However, thanks to the steadfast efforts of the Federal Government under your guidance. We are now witnessing signs of recovery and renewed hope for a brighter future. Your presence here today reaffirms the government’s commitment to supporting industries like ours, which are the backbone of national development.

“Mamuda Group is proud to stand as a testament to what can be achieved through resilience, innovation, and public-private partnership. With over 13,000 employees, we are not just a company but a community that takes pride in uplifting lives and building a stronger economy.”

Hammoud appealed to the Federal Government to continue to enact favourable policies that would enable industries to thrive and support them in areas such as tax, infrastructure and access to financing.
