Tinubu Inaugurates Presidential Economic Coordinating Committee to Boost Economy

By  Milcah   Tanimu

President Bola Tinubu has inaugurated a Presidential Economic Coordinating Committee with the objective of revitalizing the Nigerian economy swiftly.

The committee comprises key figures from the private sector, including Aliko Dangote, Chairman of Dangote Group; Tony Elumelu, Chairman of Heirs Holdings; and Wale Edun, Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister for the Economy.

The committee is expected to inject over ₦2 trillion into the Nigerian economy to stimulate growth. During the inauguration ceremony at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Thursday, Tinubu announced the allocation of specific funds: ₦250 billion for Health and Social Welfare and ₦500 billion for Energy and Power, among other economic support measures.

These initiatives are likely in response to the current inflationary trends that have sparked widespread complaints among Nigerians.
