VP Shettima Assures, No Going Back On Nigeria's Digital Revolution
Vice President, Senator Kashim Shettima, has restated the firm resolve of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's administration to revolutionize Nigeria's Digital Economy, saying it is on course and fully backed by the necessary support, initiatives and partnerships.
To this effect, he said the Federal Government will continue to open its doors to all willing partners and stakeholders who continue to believe and invest in the Nigeria project, adding that it is just a matter of time before the nation takes its rightful position across the globe.
The Vice President, who gave the assurance on when the management of Odua Investment Company Limited led by its Chairman, Otunba Bimbo Ashiru, paid him a courtesy visit at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, praised the Company for its initiatives and investment in agriculture, digital economy and MSMEs.
Senator Shettima noted that these sectors remain critical to Nigeria's economic development and future.
On the ''weaponization of fuel subsidy," Vice President Shettima described it as an albatross that hung on the neck of the Nigerian nation, as well as the hitherto manipulated exchange rate.
Earlier, the Chairman of Odu’a Investment Company Limited, Otunba Ashiru, who thanked the Vice President for the opportunity to pay him a courtesy call, commended President Tinubu for promoting ease of doing business in Nigeria.
Mr Ashiru expressed optimism that businesses will continue to thrive under the Tinubu administration, even as he called on citizens and investors to take advantage of the opportunities that abound in Nigeria and do business.
