British–Nigerian Chamber seeks stronger policy reforms, trade expansion, and investor confidence.
The Nigerian-British Chamber of Commerce (NBCC) has reaffirmed its commitment to deepening trade and investment ties between Nigeria and the United Kingdom following a strategic visit to the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun.
A delegation led by NBCC President, Prince Abimbola Olashore, met with the minister in Abuja as part of the Chamber’s efforts to strengthen public–private sector cooperation and address policy concerns affecting business competitiveness.
According to a statement issued on Thursday, the visit included discussions around export-led growth, SME development, tax reforms, and joint investment promotion initiatives. Senior ministry officials, including Special Adviser Kike Longe and directors in economic and tax departments, also attended the meeting.
Olashore stressed that the Chamber serves as a bridge between business and policy.
“We appreciate the minister’s openness to partnership. Our goal is to ensure members’ concerns are represented at the highest policymaking levels,” he said.
In his response, Edun praised the Chamber’s proactive engagement and said the Federal Government is focused on stabilising revenues, improving efficiency, and promoting private-sector-led growth.
Both parties agreed to maintain continuous dialogue and collaborate on future stakeholder engagements aimed at boosting investor confidence and advancing Nigeria’s economic reforms.
