Speaking on his behalf at the 2025 Nigeria Public-Private Partnership (PPP) Summit in Abuja, Vice President Kashim Shettima relayed the president’s position, stating that Nigerians are no longer interested in promises, but in tangible results—such as electricity in their homes, good roads, clean water, functional hospitals, and quality education.

The summit, themed “Unlocking Nigeria’s Potential: The Role of Public-Private Partnerships in Delivering the Renewed Hope Agenda”, was convened by the Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission (ICRC).

President Tinubu also cautioned Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) against delays, asserting that all viable projects must transition quickly from planning to execution, with seamless coordination among agencies becoming a top priority.

“We must build. We must deliver. And we must do it together,” Tinubu emphasized.

Highlighting the limitations of government-only funding, Tinubu called on the private sector to act not just as financiers but as strategic partners in national development.

“We’re not handing over burdens—we’re providing opportunities for value creation,” he said.

He stressed that solving Nigeria’s infrastructure deficit would require more than just capital—it demands innovation, transparency, and efficiency.

While acknowledging past failures in project execution, Tinubu assured investors that his administration has adopted global best practices to improve governance and transparency in PPP arrangements.

“Our processes are streamlined. Public-private engagements are now more transparent,” he noted.

Closing his remarks, Tinubu urged local and international investors to take advantage of Nigeria’s unparalleled market size, demand, and return potential.
