Hamzat Congratulates TBG, Pushes for Stronger Public-Private Partnership

Dr. Kadir Obafemi Hamzat, the Deputy Governor of Lagos State and APC gubernatorial candidate, has congratulated the Thursday Business Group (TBG) on its 10th anniversary, advocating for a stronger public-private partnership.

In a statement, Hamzat commended TBG’s vision and role in fostering a conducive business environment, particularly in Lagos. He underscored the need for increased collaboration between the public and private sectors, emphasizing that such partnerships are crucial for sustainable economic growth and development.

According to THISDAYLIVE, the TBG was established in 2012 to provide a platform for businesses to engage with policymakers and discuss key economic issues. Over the years, it has hosted numerous high-profile events, including the annual Lagos Business School CEO Forum and the TBG Investment Conference.

Hamzat’s call for stronger public-private partnerships comes at a time when Lagos State is grappling with several economic challenges, including infrastructural deficits, traffic congestion, and a growing youth unemployment rate. The Deputy Governor believes that by working together, the public and private sectors can devise innovative solutions to these problems and spur economic growth in the state.
