Allow Economic Team To Work, Directors Tell FG

Nigerian directors, under the aegis of the Institute of Directors (IoD), has charged the Federal Government to provide a conducive environment for the Economic Advisory Council to impact positively on economic growth and development of the country. 

The institute argued that it was not enough for government to gather together time-tested economists, but to “walk the talk” by applying the advice and interventions of the council in its policy formulation, especially as it concerns fiscal and monetary policies. 

The Director-General of IoD, Bamidele Alimi, who noted that the institute has taken keen interest in the new development, said it will work with all relevant stakeholders, on behalf of its members and business leaders to monitor and evaluate the outcomes and impact of initiative for the overall benefit of Nigerians and businesses.
