Dangote, Oshiomhole, Ganduje, others for New Telegraph Economic Summit

Three governors, Mr. Adams Oshiomhole (Edo), Alhaji Abdullahi Ganduje (Kano) and Chief Dave Umahi (Ebonyi) as well as President, Dangote Group, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, are among dignitaries to participate in the maiden edition of New Telegraph Economic Summit, scheduled to hold in Lagos on October 27.

The summit, with the theme: ‘Beyond month allocation: State of the Nigerian states,’,will examine the financial crisis facing many states of the federation in view of the oil price rout that has cut revenue to the Federation Account by about 65 per cent and how states could survive by expanding their internally revenue base.

Dangote will be the guest speaker at the event where the three governors will also share their experience in weathering the economic storm that has buffeted many states and impaired their ability to meet their obligations to workers and contractors.

The summit, conceived by New Telegraph to expand the conversation on the state of the nation’s economic, is aimed at generating ideas to bring more dividends of democracy to the people.
