NACCIMA Calls for Dialogue with FG on PPP

By on October 2, 2012

The Nigerian Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Mines, and Agriculture (NACCIMA) a section of the Organised Private Sector (OPS), has reiterated the private sector and the Federal Government should have regular summits to uphold the Public Private Partnership (PPP) understanding in the nation.

President of NACCIMA, Dr. Herbert Ajayi Speaking at the Association’s Third-Quarter Council Meeting recently in Anambra State, maintained that the significance of PPP understanding to the growth of the national economy is very ,much important.

 

He pointed out that NACCIMA has huge challenges of meeting the decisive demands being made upon it under our nursing democracy.

 

To guarantee the growth of businesses as well as the economy, Ajayi advised that Governments as well as the Chamber of Commerce should not stop working together, only by doing so will the transformation agenda be realised.

“The various tiers of government should partner the private sector, especially the chambers of Commerce in a number of initiatives, such as urban regeneration apprenticeship schemes to offer advice to small firms, exporters and other industrial sectors of the economy.

 

“This could be achieved through regular meetings, preferably on quarterly basis to be held at the instance of either the Chambers of Commerce or Governments to rub minds to discuss issues of concern and proffer solutions in the best interest of the economy,” he said.

 

The president also urged members to relentlessly partake in government’s socio-economic and political Transformation Agenda in progress. Ajayi also advised members to make sure that they benefit from the needed national economic growth as well as development.

In the end, he promised the members that, notwithstanding the serious challenges today, NACCIMA would not hesitate to make its position known to different governments until the atmosphere for doing business becomes favourable to draw more investment actions from local and foreign financiers.
