The first is to act as a catalyst for grooming young entrepreneurs in Igboland. The second aspect is to work to industrialise the states in Igboland, including resuscitating dead industries\u2014that\u2019s industrialisation. The third major part is in the area of generally attracting investment within and outside the Igbo region. The fourth is to develop a blueprint for the economic development of Alaigbo and establish a business vehicle in Igboland. So these are the four major plans (as enshrined in the mandate given to us).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Continuing, he said: \u201cSeveral aspects of this assignment will involve the participation of the government. Let\u2019s take the resuscitation of moribund businesses in Igboland for instance. The question is: what made those businesses moribund? And you find that some of the reasons are due to the operating environment. Then you find that it\u2019s part of the responsibility of government to provide a conducive and enabling environment for businesses to thrive.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese are fundamental. To be able to get businesses to thrive, one needs a stable procurement and land tenure system. So, government should be involved in helping businesses and businessmen obtain documentation for their land-bankable documentation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also added: \u201cThe Constitution gives the state governments powers to handle this, and so nobody can run away from their participation. I talked about the operating environment; and another is the tax regime, infrastructure, and provision of security, among others. So we need the government.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
