The Presidential Enabling Business Environment Council (PEBEC) has shed light on its strategy for bringing together Nigeria’s public and private sector leaders to drive foreign direct investment.
In a Friday briefing following the Third Existing Foreign Direct Investors (FDI) Roundtable at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, PEBEC clarified that the nation requires a dialogue centered on practical solutions to fortify the local investment climate.
Senator Ibrahim Hadejia, the Deputy Chief of Staff to the President, opened the session on behalf of the Vice President. He reaffirmed the Federal Government’s dedication to building a business landscape defined by stability, transparency, and competitiveness one designed to fuel expansion and steady economic progress.
Princess Zahrah Mustapha Audu, the Director-General of PEBEC, also spoke on the Council’s drive to maintain an open line of communication with investors and ensure that reforms are carried out consistently across all government bodies.
She noted that existing foreign investors remain critical partners in Nigeria’s economic development through their contributions to job creation, capital investment, technology transfer, and supply chain development.
Furthermore, she pointed out that PEBEC’s core strategy involves actively listening to the people already doing business in the country to fix the day-to-day hurdles they encounter.
The session drew high-level officials, including Dr. Zacch Adedeji, Executive Chairman of the Nigeria Revenue Service; Bashir Adewale Adeniyi, Comptroller-General of the Nigeria Customs Service; and IGP Olutunji Rilwan Disu, Inspector-General of Police.
Joining the conversation remotely were Taiwo Oyedele, Chairman of the Presidential Committee on Fiscal Policy and Tax Reforms and Minister of State for Finance (Designate), along with various members of the diplomatic corps.
“The successful convening of the Third Existing FDI Roundtable reinforces PEBEC’s role as a key institutional platform for coordinating reforms, resolving investor concerns, and strengthening Nigeria’s position as a competitive investment destination in Africa,” PEBEC stated.
