The Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETfund) has predicted Nigeria would become the 14th best economy in the world by 2050.
The Executive Secretary of the fund, Dr Abdullahi Baffa-Bichi said this recently.
According to him, signs of growth and development are showing after the sound and excellent economic policy introduced by the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.
He noted that a report released by an established global economic expert, PWC, had also predicted that Nigeria would be the 14th biggest economy in the world in 2050.
He said the Nigeria’s economy is now coping fine as seen by the stability in the business and investment environment.
The TETfund boss also praised Buhari for his good economic policies and initiatives which were responsible for the country to get out of recession within just two years.
According to him, this achievement was certified by the major financial players in the world such as IMF and World Bank.
“If not for the prudent management of resources instilled by the administration, Nigeria would have been in a serious economic crisis”, he said.
According to Baffa-Bichi, who is the Director-General of the “One 2 Tell 10’’ movement, he explained that getting out of recession was by no means a great achievement.
He expressed hope that Nigerians would soon be among the best economies in the world if these policies are sustained.
He therefore said such feat alone should make Nigerian electorate to renew their mandate to the government.
Nigerians are now wiser and they have seen the good works of President Buhari, giving him another chance in 2019 will certainly go a long way to further secure our country and launch her among the comity of advanced nations.
“On assumption of office, Buhari had three major programmes which are ensuring security, fighting corruption and economic recovery.
“We are all living witnesses today that our country is enjoying peace with the taming of the activities of insurgents and pipeline vandals.
“While efforts are on top gear to quenching the activities of bandits in other parts of the country.
Economically, Nigeria is now on a sound footing while corruption has been reduced to the barest minimum.”
