Reacting, Atiku said if given the mandate in 2023, he will start by restoring investors' confidence in Nigeria's economy, so that they take risk and invest capital especially in the non-oil sector.
According to him, this can be achieved by being more consistent and coherent in economic policies as policy flip-flops sends investors away.
Atiku added that he will also fight fighting insecurity. As he put it, "Investment is a coward animal and fears conflicts and insecurity."
Secondly, the PDP bigwig projected that within the first 100 days in office, he will unveil an Economic Stimulus Fund with an initial investment capacity of approximately US$10 billion.
He explained that the fund will support private sector investments in infrastructure and prioritize support to agriculture, manufacturing and the MSMEs across all the economic sectors because they offer the greatest opportunities for achieving inclusive growth.
The northern politician went on to state that in the agricultural sector, his administration shall elevate irrigation to a top policy priority and support both small holder and commercial farmers to cultivate at least 10% of the potential irrigable land.
