What happened
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has called on faith-based organizations, businesses, and civil society to collaborate with the government to achieve national development goals. Separately, the World Bank has cited data suggesting that a large proportion of Nigerians are either living below the poverty line or are vulnerable to falling into poverty.
Why it matters
The World Bank provides critical financial aid and economic assessments that fundamentally shape Nigeria's economic trajectory. The assessment of poverty and the call for collective responsibility underscore the need for structural economic improvements in the country.
Governors in Nigeria are collaborating with the federal government and the World Bank on national development initiatives and constitutional frameworks.
