President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to strengthening Nigeria’s digital economy, holding a high-level meeting with the leadership of Flutterwave and Alami Capital. The discussions focused on removing obstacles for businesses and creating an enabling environment for fintech growth.
With strong leadership from Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun, alongside Dr. Armstrong Ume Takang of the Ministry of Finance Incorporated (MOFI) and Dr. Inuwa Kashifu Abdullahi, Director-General of the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA), the government is taking bold steps to position Nigeria as a global fintech hub.
“Nigeria is open for business,” a government statement read. “By supporting home-grown digital platforms, we are driving job creation, diversifying our economy, and solidifying our position as Africa’s largest economy.”
The administration has called on fintech innovators to take advantage of this renewed commitment, emphasizing that Nigeria is ready to back visionary entrepreneurs. The goal, according to officials, is to see Nigerian digital products and services reach every home across Africa.
