The Nigerian Economic Summit Group (NESG) is embarking on a comprehensive campaign to elevate public awareness and media engagement in anticipation of the Nigerian Economic Summit 2025, slated for October in Abuja. Recognizing the pivotal role of media in disseminating the summit’s core themes and policy deliberations, the NESG leadership recently convened a strategic meeting with News Central TV’s management team in Lagos. This collaborative effort underscores the NESG’s commitment to leveraging media platforms to amplify the summit’s message and foster a nationwide dialogue on economic transformation. The summit’s focus on critical issues such as economic stabilization, growth, competitiveness, and inclusive development aligns seamlessly with the NESG’s ongoing reform agenda, aiming to tackle Nigeria’s structural economic hurdles and pave the way for sustainable and inclusive prosperity.
Central to the NESG’s strategy is the establishment of robust media alliances to broaden the summit’s reach and stimulate meaningful conversations among diverse stakeholders, including citizens, the private sector, and government officials. Dr. Tayo Aduloju, CEO of NESG, underscored the importance of evidence-based advocacy and sustained media engagement in shaping policy decisions. He emphasized the need to translate the summit’s insights into actionable policy recommendations that address Nigeria’s economic challenges effectively. The partnership with News Central TV represents a significant step in this direction, providing a prominent platform to disseminate the summit’s findings and stimulate public discourse on economic issues.
Beyond national engagement, the NESG is also broadening its horizons by planning regional events and forging partnerships across West Africa. This strategic move reflects the NESG’s commitment to fostering regional economic integration and positioning Nigeria as a leader in collaborative efforts to drive economic transformation within the sub-region. By extending its reach beyond national borders, the NESG aims to build a broader coalition of stakeholders invested in achieving shared economic goals and strengthening regional cooperation. This regional approach recognizes the interconnectedness of economies within West Africa and the potential for synergistic growth through collaborative initiatives.
The Nigerian Economic Summit 2025 promises to be a crucial platform for generating actionable insights and strategies to address the country’s economic realities. The summit will bring together a diverse array of stakeholders, including policymakers, business leaders, civil society organizations, and the general public, creating an inclusive and participatory environment for discussing critical economic issues and charting a path forward. The collaborative approach underscores the NESG’s belief in the power of collective action and the importance of engaging all segments of society in the pursuit of economic progress.
Kayode Akintemi, Managing Director of News Central TV, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership with NESG, recognizing its potential to contribute significantly to national conversations on economic transformation. This collaboration provides News Central TV with a unique opportunity to showcase the NESG’s work and amplify its message to a wider audience. By partnering with a leading media organization, the NESG can ensure that the summit’s discussions and recommendations reach a broad spectrum of stakeholders, maximizing its impact on policy formulation and implementation.
As the summit approaches, the NESG remains steadfast in its commitment to creating an inclusive platform that fosters dialogue and collaboration among diverse stakeholders. The summit’s agenda will address key economic challenges facing Nigeria and explore innovative solutions to drive sustainable growth and development. By bringing together policymakers, business leaders, civil society representatives, and the general public, the summit aims to generate a comprehensive roadmap for economic transformation, ensuring that all voices are heard and that the resulting strategies reflect the needs and aspirations of all segments of Nigerian society. The ultimate goal is to create a more prosperous and equitable future for all Nigerians.
