The Vice President also said the private sector in Nigeria would continue to play a prominent role in the economic programmes and initiatives of the administration.

He noted the significance of private sector investment in the economy, adding that collaboration between the Federal Government and the private sector would further boost the country's economic progress.

“If you look at our economic programmes and several other initiatives, the private sector plays a prominent role in them, and that is how it should be.

"So there is no question that the roles the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) and private sector play are critical to the kind of development policies and plan that we have in this government, "he said.

The Vice President commended the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) for its Presidential Policy Dialogues on the economy, which he noted has helped in shaping some initiatives and policies of government.
