President Tinubu sets up tripartite economic advisory committee
In a desperate bid to tackle the economic hardship in the country, President Bola Tinubu on Sunday created an economic advisory committee comprising the federal government, sub-nationals and the private sector.
This was the outcome of paley between the President and key stakeholders at the State House, Abuja, on Sunday evening.
Speaking at the meeting, President Tinubu said the goal is to provide “additional efforts” in stabilising the economy and ensuring the “best economic future” for Nigerians.
He said, “Let’s look at what we’re doing right and what we’re doing wrong to bring life back to the economy. Like I said, many times, the people of this country are only the people who we have to please. And we are very much concerned from students to mothers and fathers, farmers, the traders and realising that everyone of us will have to fetch water from the same well.
“We’re looking for additional efforts that’s might help the downtrodden Nigerians and we will provide that hope and reassurance that economic recovery is on its way.
“We are not saying that we have all the answers. But we will not be blamed for not trying. We assure Nigerians that we will do our best to get our marshall plan in place and fashion out the best economic future for this country.”
