VP Kashim Shettima told state governments, federal agencies, private companies, and development partners to keep pushing business environment reforms at the PEBEC awards ceremony in Abuja, saying the country needs everyone working together to actually get anywhere. He praised public servants for ditching mediocrity and highlighted how the Ports and Customs Efficiency Committee already cut delays through joint inspections.
Deputy Chief of Staff Ibrahim Hadejia said PEBEC under Shettima keeps delivering changes that help businesses across different sectors, but there's still a ton of work left. PEBEC Director-General Zahrah Audu credited their wins to better teamwork with ministries and state governments.
The event dropped reports on Business Facilitation Act compliance and subnational ease of doing business rankings, and handed out awards for categories like Access to Justice and Legislative Trailblazer.
