Governors & VP Kashim Shettima Huddle at Abuja for Fresh Economic Boost
At the Presidential Villa on Thursday, Nigeria’s top brass—Vice President Kashim Shettima and governors including Alex Otti (Abia), Ahmad Ododo (Kogi), Uba Sani (Kaduna), Duoye Diri (Bayelsa), Hope Uzodimma (Imo), and others—gathered for a power-packed National Economic Council (NEC) meeting aimed at driving national and grassroots development.
The vibe was all about economic revival as the National Economic Council convened under the watchful eye of Vice President Kashim Shettima. Governors pictured—like Abia’s Alex Otti who’s been getting accolades for infrastructure strides and Imo’s Hope Uzodimma, fresh from championing the federal Renewed Hope Ward Development Programme—brought their A-game to the table.
Budget Minister Atiku Bagudu joined forces with the likes of Uzodimma and Ondo’s Lucky Adeyatiwa, confirming unity in pushing Nigeria’s macroeconomic gains down to its 8,809 wards, a bold move to accelerate grassroots prosperity.
With President Tinubu on board for the strategic drive, the NEC is laser-focused on poverty eradication, boosting employment, and stimulating local economies — all underpinned by a vision to surpass current growth rates and ramp up Nigeria’s economic engine.
This assembly of governors standing shoulder to shoulder with the VP and key ministers at the State House embodied the spirit of collaborative governance, signaling clear intent to convert lofty policy ideas into tangible results across the nation.
