Governor Abdullahi Sule has assembled experts as advisers to enable his administration to turn the economic fortunes of Nasarawa State around.
He described the 14-member Investment and Economic Development Advisory Council as tested and trusted global citizens.
The governor said the move was consistent with his campaign promise of making the state an economic hub for investment opportunities and sustainable development.
The team was given 13 terms of reference and is to advise the state government on matters relating to the attraction of domestic and foreign direct investments (FDI) while also acting as ambassadors for investment initiatives and competitive issues.
They are equally to provide advisory roles according to their specialised industry, as appropriate and relevant in guiding and shaping the current administration’s economic vision.
Chairman of the council, Prof. Konyisola Ajayi (SAN), thanked the governor for affording his team the opportunity to bring an economic resurgence to the state given its proximity to the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
