– Dangote, Elumelu, Abiodun, makes list
President Bola Tinubu has created an economic advisory committee comprising the federal government, sub-nationals and the private sector.
This resulted from talks between the President and key stakeholders at the State House, Abuja, on Sunday evening.
The development came as a result of the falling naira exchange rate, rising inflation and other economic headwinds have continued to worsen the cost of living crisis.
Some of the prominent members of the private sector that made the list include Aliko Dangote, chairman of the Dangote group; Tony Elumelu, group chairman of Transnational Corporation Plc (Transcorp); Abdulsamad Rabiu, founder of the BUA group; Segun Ajayi-Kadir, president of the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN), in attendance.
Others are governors Dapo Abiodun of Ogun state and Chuwkuma Soludo of Anambra.
