Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, yesterday, said Nigeria needed to deepen value addition to aid job creation and growth of the commodities market.

To achieve this, Osinbajo said there was a need to build a resilient and competitive economy that would mitigate and adapt to climate change and relentlessly match the digital economy and fourth industrial revolution. Osinbajo gave the assertion at the 2021 LCCI Presidential Policy Dialogue Organised by the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

He posited that the right regulatory environment was critical to growing the sector, adding that this would bring together private and public sector partnerships to formulate policies such as banking policies and payment systems to accommodate the new tech enabled players. Sanwo-Olu said Nigeria must raise commitment levels and harness opportunities offered by the African Continental Free Trade Area for global competitiveness.

He reiterated his administration’s strategic direction to harness public and private sector growth to create jobs, expand social services and provide a conducive environment for businesses to thrive.
