Ekeh Backs Tinubu's Reforms as Boost for Nigeria's Economy

Leo Stan Ekeh, the chairman of Zinox Group, expressed strong support for President Bola Tinubu's business-friendly reforms, stating they significantly enhance investor confidence in Nigeria's economy. Ekeh made these remarks on Friday in Lagos, emphasizing that Tinubu's immediate implementation of reforms upon taking office is crucial to restoring investor trust.

He referenced comments from the World Bank and WTO Director-General Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, endorsing the credibility of Tinubu's reform progress. Ekeh noted the expansion of major multinational companies in Africa's ICT ecosystem and the importance of local partnerships in contributing to Nigeria's economic growth.

He recalled Tinubu's support for launching Zinox's digital products in 2001 when he was the governor of Lagos State. Ekeh highlighted Tinubu's vision for a digit-driven economy and the need for policies that attract significant global private capital.

He also mentioned the Nigerian Exchange Group's milestone of surpassing N100 trillion in market capitalization by January 8, 2025, reflecting growing trust in Nigeria's reform agenda.
