Ezenyili seeks government, private cooperation to promote industrialisation

Asaba-based industrialist, Chief Chinedu Ezenyili, has called for cooperation between the government and the private sector to enhance industrialisation, growth and development of the country.

Ezenyili, who is the Ide of Oko in Oshimili South Local Council Area of Delta State, said such cooperation would pave the way for the expected solution to the current challenges of recession.

He made the submission shortly after being honoured with the award of the ‘South-South Best Customer of the Year for Dangote Cement,’ in Lagos recently.

The industrialist, who is the chief executive officer, Chinedu and Sons, Investment Nigeria Limited, said Nigeria needs joint efforts in tackling the economic crisis and expressed the hope that the government will find it worthwhile to continue to work with the private sector in order to move the country forward.

He lauded the efforts of the President, Dangote Group, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, in championing local industrialisation and expressed the hope that his efforts would help enhance the fortunes of the country.

The Ide Oko said the award would spur him to more commitment to efforts that would better the country’s economy.
