A six-day international study tour on Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) has commenced in Casablanca, Morocco, as part of efforts to support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's ambition of building a one-trillion-dollar economy. The programme, which brings together policymakers, regulators, development partners and private-sector stakeholders, is aimed at exploring strategies to address Nigeria's infrastructure deficit, currently estimated at 30 per cent, against the 70 per cent benchmark.
Organised by the Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission (ICRC), the study tour is designed to expose participants to successful PPP models and identify practical approaches to strengthening infrastructure development, financing and project delivery in Nigeria. The Director-General of the ICRC, Dr Jobson Ewalefor, explained that the engagement would provide an opportunity for stakeholders to learn from international best practices and explore innovative solutions to the country's infrastructure challenges.
Among the participants is the Director-General of the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria (FRCN), Dr Mohammed Bulama, who is leading a delegation from the Corporation. Other members of the delegation include the Managing Director of Radio Nigeria Investments Limited (RNIL), Chinyere Oaikhena; Director of Finance and Administration, Mallam Musa Ibrahim-Bako; Head of Legal, Olubukola Taiwo Shonibare; and Acting Director, Office of the Director-General, Suleman Musa.
