Tinubu’s reforms have created centres of prosperity – Uzodinma

Nigeria is witnessing an economic turnaround flowing from the reforms introduced by the President Bola Tinubu administration, Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodinma, has said.

Uzodinma spoke during the recently concluded two-day Imo Economic Summit in Owerri.

He said the financial turnaround of states in the wake of the triple increase in monthly revenue had given them the opportunity to fund development.

“We have pursued aggressive but progressive reforms from which early movers and investors can benefit. The state government has removed bottlenecks that previously made doing business difficult and has interconnected our communities with over 100 new roads,” he said.

Uzodimma highlighted ongoing infrastructure and energy projects, including the Orashi Power Project, which he said would soon be operational. He also referenced the Skill-Up Imo Initiative, which is producing thousands of skilled workers for the economy.

While disclosing that “The state government has digitised land administration, making it possible for Certificates of Occupancy (CofO) to be issued within 24 hours,” he emphasised the investment potential of the Orashi River Dredging Project, as well as the state’s mineral resources and the largest untapped gas deposits in West Africa.

“Imo State is secure, ready and open for business. When opportunity meets preparation, good business happens. Bring your investments to Imo State now for higher investment returns.”

The summit, themed: “Unlocking Imo’s Economic Potential: Partnership, Investment and Innovation”, attracted distinguished global figures, including the President of Liberia, Joseph Boakai; a former President of Mauritius, Ameenah Gurib-Fakim; a former UN Secretary-General, Ban Ki-Moon; Alhaji Aliko Dangote, President of the Dangote Group; Professor Benedict Oramah, former President of Afreximbank; Leo Stan Ekeh, Chairman, Zinox Technologies; Isha Sesay, former CNN anchor; Ernest Nwapa, and several other industry leaders. Traditional rulers and political figures, including the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, and Eze Dr Cletus Ilomuanya, Obi of Obinugwu, were also in attendance.
