The federal government of Nigeria recently unveiled a new initiative to establish an operating model and framework for Economic and Financial Inclusion, aimed at transforming the Nigerian economy into a $1 trillion economy by the year 2030. The initiative is designed to combat poverty and catalyze sustainable economic growth from the ground up.
Vice President Kashim Shettima, during the initiative’s launch at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, emphasized the importance of strategic and sustainable inclusive growth. He called upon professionals to contribute their insights, expertise, and dedication to ensure the success of the initiative, stressing the need for a robust operating model that will drive economic and financial inclusion across the nation, ensuring every Nigerian has the opportunity to thrive.
The aim of the initiative is to drive economic and financial inclusion, ensuring universal access to financial services. The Federal Government has committed to the Aso Accord on Economic and Financial Inclusion, a multi-pronged blueprint designed to achieve universal access to financial services. The unveiling of this policy symbolizes the commitment of the President Bola Tinubu administration to enhancing financial and economic inclusion across Nigeria.
As the government continues to implement this initiative, it is poised to address economic disparities and create pathways for sustainable growth. The goal of eradicating poverty and promoting inclusive growth will be pursued as the government works to develop a robust operating model that will drive economic and financial inclusion across the nation.
With the determination to forge a strong and prosperous nation, the launch of this initiative represents a pivotal moment in Nigeria’s economic landscape. As the government continues to garner support and collaboration, the hope is that this initiative will set forth a transformative agenda, guiding the nation towards a future of shared prosperity and sustainable economic development.
The unveiling of the Economic and Financial Inclusion initiative marks a significant step towards addressing economic disparities and fostering a climate of financial empowerment. It underscores the government’s commitment to driving sustained economic growth and working towards a future where every Nigerian has the opportunity to thrive.
