President Bola Tinubu has launched a new platform aimed at bridging the gap between government policies and the realities of doing business in Nigeria.
The initiative, known as the Renewed Hope Enterprise Bridge, is designed to foster direct and continuous engagement between policymakers and entrepreneurs across the country.
Represented by his Chief of Staff, Femi Gbajabiamila, at the launch in Abuja, the President said the move is intended to ensure that policies are shaped by real business experiences.
He noted that for policies to be truly effective, they must reflect the day-to-day challenges faced by entrepreneurs, stressing that government can no longer operate in isolation but must actively listen, engage, and respond to the needs of businesses.
President Tinubu also commended Nigerian entrepreneurs for sustaining the economy despite harsh conditions, assuring them that his administration will continue refining policies to support business growth, competitiveness, and job creation.
Earlier, the Minister of Arts, Culture and Creative Economy, Hannatu Musawa, highlighted the vast potential of the creative and digital sectors to attract investment and drive entrepreneurship.
Similarly, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Entrepreneurship Development, Chalya Shagaya, described the initiative as the beginning of a more inclusive and sustained dialogue, placing entrepreneurs at the centre of Nigeria’s ambition to build a trillion-dollar economy.
