What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The federal government replaced its industrial policy framework, which the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies found to be obsolete and threatening local production growth during a 2023 review. The Federal Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment subsequently developed and enacted the new policy. Officials stressed that consistent implementation by the government and other stakeholders is necessary for the policy to deliver results.
