Vice President Shettima: Nigeria’s economy set for significant growth


The Nigerian economy is on the brink of substantial growth, according to Vice President Kashim Shettima.

Shettima shared this positive outlook on Thursday in Abuja during the 2nd Chronicle Roundtable hosted by 21st Century Media Services, the publishers of 21st Century Chronicle.

The event, part of the group’s public service enlightenment series, aimed to foster discussion on economic matters.

Encouraging patience, Shettima urged Nigerians to support President Bola Tinubu’s governance as he navigates through the economic challenges inherited upon assuming office.

“We anticipate a considerable upturn in Nigeria’s economy once we surpass these hurdles,” Shettima remarked optimistically.

He added, “Positive transformations will soon materialize across various economic indicators such as inflation, per capita income, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), poverty alleviation, and food security, all of which are crucial to our citizens.”

Moreover, Shettima, serving as the Guest Speaker at the roundtable, elaborated on key policy measures implemented by the Tinubu administration, outlining its economic and social strategies, notably the removal of petroleum subsidy.
