NO PLAN TO BORROW TO FINANCE NIGERIA’S ECONOMY- WALE EDUN

 

The Minister said Federal Government has no intention to borrow from any local or foreign organisation with its removal of subsidy on petrol and exchange rate harmonisation.

 

The Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister for the Economy, Wale Edun, revealed this at the end of the inaugural Federal Executive Council meeting on Monday in Abuja.

 

He said that the benefit of the subsidy removal would be ploughed back into various sectors aimed at boosting government revenue and improving the business environment for local and foreign investment.

 

Mr Edun said that with the increased revenue from subsidy removal, various palliatives have been made available to cushion its effect on a short, medium and long-term basis.

 

He reiterated the President Bola Tinubu-led administration’s desire to bring back the economy from the wood it has found itself over time.
