Simon Lalong.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday with us are eminent Nigerians who have been duly nominated to be inaugurated into this committee for this all-important national assignment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is worthy of note that their nomination was done based on their competence and dedication to duty,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>According to her, no doubt, the task ahead of you is enormous but I am confident that you will justify the confidence reposed in you all and meet up with the very expectations placed on this committee to deliver.<\/p>\n<p>She, therefore, appealed that the integrity and quality of the award must be preserved at all cost.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is worth mentioning here that this assignment is of great importance to the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Tinubu\u2019s Administration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis administration is committed to unleashing our country\u2019s full economic potential by focusing on job creation, access to capital for small and large businesses, and inclusiveness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dOthers are the rule of law and the fight against hunger, poverty and corruption, by which productivity is the bedrock,\u201d the minister said.<\/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.
