Presidential Advisory Council Seeks Assembly Backing for Investment Drive
The Director-General of the Presidential Economic Advisory Council and the Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council, Adeniyi Adeyemi, met with Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu at the National Assembly to secure legislative support for the president’s investment push. They discussed aligning executive policies with laws to create the right environment for economic revival and inclusive growth. Adeyemi stressed that potential alone does not attract capital, saying, “We cannot deliver inclusive growth without policy alignment. Every stakeholder must play their part.” Kalu described the meeting as a bridge between national ambition and actionable policy. He reaffirmed the House of Representatives’ commitment to support initiatives that promote investment, job creation and long-term growth. The Deputy Speaker highlighted Nigeria’s recent upgrade to a “B” long-term foreign-currency rating by Fitch, pointing to improved policy credibility under exchange-rate liberalisation. Adeyemi also announced the World Investment Summit scheduled for November 10–14, 2025, aimed at showcasing Nigeria as a prime destination for global investors.
