Group seeks speedy constitution of next FEC

The Sustainable Entrepreneurship and Economic Development Initiative (SEEDi) has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to speed up the constitution of his next Federal Executive Council (FEC).

According to the non-profit organisation, the nation’s economy faces a myriad of challenges impacting negatively on the wellbeing of Nigerians hence the urgent need for a team to address them headlong.

In a statement by its Lead Partner, Celestine Okeke, SEEDi noted that youth unemployment stood at a staggering 54.3 percent (as of late 2018), adding that the current administration could not afford to delay nominating ministers and other members of its economic team.
