Nigeria’s Project 774 Network backs APC chairman Nentawe Yilwatda’s view that state governments must connect major national projects with farms, factories and markets. This cooperation is presented as a way to achieve Bola Tinubu’s goal of growing Nigeria’s economy to $1 trillion, Pmnewsnigeria reports.

The Project 774 Network has backed the view that Nigerian state governments have a key role in achieving the $1 trillion economy target championed by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Pmnewsnigeria reports. It shares the position of Nentawe Yilwatda, national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

In a recent address, Yilwatda set out an economic vision based on deep-sea ports, highways, railways, gas pipelines, electricity, solid minerals, agriculture and industrial zones. He said federal infrastructure could open up trade routes, deliver gas and electricity and strengthen industrial hubs.
