President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has engaged global investors in Paris, reiterating his administration\u2019s commitment to transparency, fiscal discipline, and the sustained implementation of economic reforms aimed at stabilising Nigeria\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n
At the meeting, the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Taiwo Oyedele, disclosed that Nigeria recorded an 11.2 per cent GDP growth in dollar terms in 2025. He described the performance as a significant milestone that strengthens the country\u2019s ambition of achieving a $1 trillion economy by 2030.<\/p>\n
Oyedele noted that the government\u2019s immediate priority is to ensure that ongoing reforms translate into tangible benefits for Nigerians. He also pledged that the administration would begin publishing quarterly financial data to enhance accountability.<\/p>\n
Also speaking, the Director-General of the Debt Management Office, Patience Oniha, assured investors of Nigeria\u2019s prudent approach to borrowing, emphasising a focus on sustainable debt management.<\/p>\n
The investor delegation included representatives from major global financial institutions such as Citibank, Amundi led by Valerie Baudson, as well as BlueCrest, Ninety One, Kirkoswald Capital, Principal Finisterre, Prudential Global Investment Management, and Mesarete Capital.<\/p>\n
President Tinubu, who departed Nigeria on Sunday for a three-nation trip, explained that his administration\u2019s reform programme is designed to eliminate economic distortions and stabilise key macroeconomic indicators, thereby laying the foundation for inclusive and sustained growth.<\/p>\n
He further highlighted plans to deepen reforms, improve transparency across the oil value chain, and strengthen national security through measures such as police decentralisation and disrupting terrorist financing networks.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe focus remains on policy stability and diligent execution to ensure these strategic shifts translate into concrete benefits for all Nigerians,\u201d the President said.<\/p>\n
Some investors at the meeting commended the government\u2019s reform agenda and expressed optimism about Nigeria\u2019s economic outlook. In response to a question on his post-2027 plans, Tinubu assured stakeholders of continued fiscal discipline, transparency, and policy consistency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
