The Covid-19 challenge is a call for Economic reset – Osinbajo

Vice president Yemi Osinbajo says the Covid-19 challenge is an opportunity for the country to reset the critical sectors of its economy.

He said this while speaking on Thursday during a virtual media conference where the Global Citizen announced a collaboration with the Nigeria Sovereign Investment Authority (NSIA) to establish the Nigeria Solidarity Support Fund.

“The COVID-19 challenge is also an unprecedented opportunity for us as a nation and as a people to reset the critical sectors of the economy, he said

“The disruptions in business and commerce, especially on account of the lockdown, have meant that we must develop a comprehensive economic and social response.

“This fund would support them. It will also support the Social Investment Programme of the government,” Osinbajo added
