Shettima Says F.G’s Reforms Boost Investment, Ease Business Nationwide

Nigerian Vice President Kashim Shettima on Wednesday said the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu had taken difficult but necessary decisions to place Africa’s largest economy on a path of sustainable growth.


Speaking at the opening of the 2026 Jigawa State Investment Summit in Dutse, the vice President said the federal government’s structural and fiscal reforms were aimed at improving the ease of doing business and creating an attractive environment for investors.


He said initiatives under the Presidential Enabling Business Environment Council (PEBEC) had helped replace bureaucratic obstacles with a partnership-driven approach between the federal government and subnational authorities.


“Across the federation, the President Tinubu-led administration has taken difficult but necessary decisions to put the economy back on a path of sustainable growth,” Shettima said.


The Vice President added that the reforms had enabled states to unlock their economic potential and attract investments by creating a more business-friendly environment.
