President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Tuesday officially unveiled and launched the Nigeria Industrial Policy 2025 which took place at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre in Abuja, where Vice President Kashim Shettima represented the President.
In his speech, Shettima said, “We have realized that industrialization is not a wish you think about; it is an action you perform.
“More than that, we must remind ourselves that this task demands coherence across energy, trade, infrastructure, finance, skills, and innovation. It requires partnership between the government and the private sector.
“We will measure success by the number of factories that open their gates at dawn, the jobs created for young men and women, the exports that leave our ports bearing the mark of Nigerian excellence, and the value retained within our domestic economy.
“It advances value chain development so that Nigeria moves steadily from exporting raw materials to producing finished goods. It integrates our micro, small, and medium enterprises into the heart of industrial growth, because prosperity must not be exclusive.
“It aligns infrastructure and energy with industrial ambition, for factories cannot run on policy alone. It strengthens skills, technology, and innovation to prepare our people for the industries of today and tomorrow.”
