National Economic Council Approves 90-Day Economic Plan
The National Economic Council has endorsed a 90-day economic action plan aimed at reducing the cost of living, enhancing food affordability, and attracting investment. The plan includes initiatives for tax harmonization, high-impact projects, and regulated household support.
Vice President Kashim Shettima urged governors to ensure that the benefits of these reforms reach ordinary Nigerians. Concurrently, Oyo State Governor and Allied Peoples Movement presidential candidate Seyi Makinde defended his decision to contest the 2027 election against a sitting president from the South-West, referencing the 1999 election when both Olusegun Obasanjo and Olu Falae were candidates from the region.
Makinde asserted that the South-West can present multiple candidates without compromising its interests.
