By Modupe Gbadeyanka

On Wednesday, April 5, 2017, President Muhammadu Buhari will formally launch the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan (ERGP) 2017-2020.

The ceremony, according to a statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr Femi Adesina, will take place in the Council Chambers of the Presidential Villa, Abuja, at 11am.

The ERGP, Mr Adesina said, is in furtherance of the current administration’s drive to sustain and build on the successes so far recorded in tackling corruption, improving security and revamping the economy.

The Medium-Term ERGP, which had earlier been approved by the Federal Executive Council (FEC), has amongst its broad strategic objectives: restoring sustainable, accelerated inclusive growth and development; investing in the people; and building a globally competitive economy.
