President Bola Tinubu on Sunday, held a “crucial” meeting with some members of the organised private sector, at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
This is coming amid the current economic hardship confronting Nigerians, occasioned by the rise in the exchange rate of dollars to naira.
Those who attended the meeting with the President were Alhaji Aliko Dangote, the President of the Dangote Group; Tony Elumelu, Chairman, of Heirs Holding and Transcorp Plc; Abdulsamad Rabiu, Chairman, of BUA Group; Wale Tinubu, among other members of the private sector.
The Central Bank of Nigeria had announced draft guidelines in a sweeping policy intervention for BDCs, including a ban on street trading and a fresh per capita share requirement for registration.
