I didn’t see Trade and Investment Minister in your full list, but I saw him pose in the picture you posted. Is it possible to discuss Industrialization without him? Just thinking aloud
He is number two on the list!
He’s number two on the leadership list as Vice Chairman Public Sector.
Thank God, at last! This took forever to come to pass. I have been tweeting at the Acting President for over a year now, to please set up an independent Presidential Council of Economic Experts. Well whatever name they gave to this new council, the ultimate aim remains deepening the Nigerian industrial base. Welldone Sir
I think is nice step so far.kudos to AT.P/vice president of nigeria.
