On Wednesday, President Muhammadu Buhari formally launched the National Development Plan 2021-2025, with a targeted investment outlay of N348.1 trillion to achieve the goals set out in the five-year plan. The new plan is the successor to the five-year Economic Recovery and Growth Plan, ERGP, which lapsed in 2020.
But the question on many minds is how many of the targets set in the ERGP were achieved by the administration and if the National Development Plan is going to make much of a difference.
To discuss the new five-year development plan and tell us how government intends to go about its implementation after the ERGP failed to meet any of its objectives, Johnson Chukwu, Founder and CEO of Cowry Asset Management Limited, joins The Morning Show.
