President Bola Tinubu on Sunday created a tripartite economic advisory committee, as part of efforts to stabilise Nigeria’s ailing economy.
The committee, which comprised representatives from the Federal and State governments as well as the Organised Private Sector, was announced by the President during a meeting with critical stakeholders on Sunday at the State House, Abuja.
Some members of the private sector include Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote;   BUA Group Chaiman, Abdulsamad Rabiu; a former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) cum Anambra State Governor Chukwuma Charles Soludo, amongst others.
Tinubu said the goal was to provide “additional efforts” in stabilising the economy and ensuring the “best economic future” for Nigerians.
He said: We are doing what we can do right to bring life back to the economy. Like I said many times, the people of this country are only the people we have to pleased. And we are very much concerned. From students, to mothers, the fathers, farmers, the traders.
“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. ⁣
“Realising that everyone of us will have to fetch water from the same well, we are looking for additional efforts that might help the downtrodden Nigerians and we will provide that hope and assurance 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.”

Speaking to journalists after the meeting, Dangote said the discussion focused mainly on the economy, food security, and job creation. He said the committee will look at all the issues and address them.
