The Chairman of Nigeria Governors Forum, NGF, Mallam AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has called for more increment in engagement between State Governments and the private sector.

AbdulRazaq, the  Kwara State Governor made the call in a statement after attending a plenary of the Nigeria Economic Summit organised by Nigeria Economic Summit Group, NESG, themed ‘Pathway to Sustainable Economic Transformation and Inclusion in Abuja.

Collaboration

He noted that collaboration between the public sector especially the State Governments and private would produce ,“different comparative advantages that can accelerate growth across different sectors”.

The summit, in which the NGF is a critical stakeholder, was declared open by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and attended by all the movers and shakers from government and the organised private sector in Nigeria.

Nigerian Economic Summit first conceived in 1993 is a platform for bringing together private sector leaders and senior public sector officials to discuss and dialogue on the future of the Nigerian Economy.

Three years later, in 1996, the NESG was established and incorporated as a non-profit, non-partisan private sector organisation with a mandate to promote and champion the reform of the Nigerian economy into an open, private sector-led globally competitive economy.
