The formal launch Wednesday of the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan (ERGP) 2017-2020 by President Muhammadu Buhari will herald a new push for economic recovery and the building of a competitive global economy by the Nigerian government.

According to the Special Adviser to the President on Media & Publicity, Femi Adesina, the launch of the ERGP is “in furtherance of the current Administration’s drive to sustain and build on the successes so far recorded in tackling corruption, improving security and revamping the economy.”

Adesina said in a statement on Tuesday that the ceremony will take place in the Council Chambers of the Presidential Villa, Abuja, at 11 am.

He said the Medium-Term ERGP, which had earlier been approved by the Federal Executive Council (FEC), has amongst its broad strategic objectives: restoring sustainable, accelerated inclusive growth and development; investing in the people; and building a globally competitive economy.
