In a bold and comprehensive letter addressed to the Nigerian government, Dr. Munachino Obinna Eze, Chairman of the esteemed Millennium Group, has articulated a series of urgent recommendations aimed at addressing critical economic challenges facing the nation.
Highlighting the pressing need to stabilize the foreign exchange market and foster an environment conducive to attracting Foreign Direct Investments (FDIs), Dr. Eze’s recommendations underscore the importance of proactive measures to revitalize Nigeria’s economy and promote sustainable growth.

Moreover, Dr. Eze emphasizes the pivotal role of FDIs in driving economic growth, technology transfer, and infrastructure development. To attract and retain FDIs, he proposes targeted reforms including policy and regulatory improvements, infrastructure development initiatives, enhanced investor protection measures, and promotion of strategic sectors such as manufacturing, agribusiness, renewable energy, and the digital economy.
Dr. Eze’s recommendations are rooted in a deep understanding of Nigeria’s economic landscape and reflect a commitment to collaborative efforts between the private sector and the government.
As a leading figure in Nigeria’s business community, Dr. Eze’s letter serves as a rallying call for concerted action to address the economic challenges facing the nation. It underscores the importance of proactive and strategic measures to stabilize the foreign exchange market, attract investments, and pave the way for sustained economic development.
