 National Planning Senator Atiku Bagudu says there is need for effective collaboration between the federal government and the 36 state governors in the country, in different sectors, to ensure rapid socio-economic growth and development. The minister was speaking at the closing of the 22nd edition of the Joint Planning Board and National Council on Development planning meetings hosted by the Ocean State Government. He said, though the federal government's revenue generation has improved, inflation is still an issue to be addressed to fast-track national development. The Acting Comptroller General of Customs says all service chiefs in the country have keyed into the federal government's programme. Also speaking, the Ocean State Governor Ademola Delike said the outcome of the meeting will drive the state development agenda. The team of the 22nd National Council on Development Planning meeting is imperative for restoring Nigeria on the path of sustainable growth and development. This team was carefully crafted to restore and stabilize the macroeconomy for sustainable economic growth and development. It has been a rallying point for our discussions, and I am confident that the insights shared and the resolutions reached during these meetings will significantly impact our nation's developmental trajectory. As you all said, Oshu is proud to showcase its development initiatives and investment opportunities to the nation. I'd like to assure you all that the customs will remain steadfast in our commitments to supporting and aligning with national development agenda, and we look forward to forging partnerships and collaborations that will further our collective goals.
