But, there is still so much to be done,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Wike further commended the association for remaining resilient and resourceful to drive development in the country<\/p>\n\n\n<p>The governor added that his administration had embarked on major infrastructural development to further open the state to investments.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe state government is happy the association has acknowledged some of our modest contributions towards development; improving living standard and ease of doing business.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>\u201cHowever, we are not done yet as well as not resting on our oars until we have covered all the areas and targets we have set as a government,\u201d the governor assured.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>In her remarks the National President of NACCIMA, Hajiya Saratu Aliyu thanked Wike for his huge support to the association.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>According to her, the governor\u2019s goodwill was a reflection of his administration\u2019s immense support to the private sector during the COVID-19 pandemic in the state.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn addition, we will continue to champion the call for the sustenance of an ideal business environment through policy advocacy and influence in Nigeria.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>\u201cIndeed, these are challenging times, but also an auspicious time as well. As Nigerians, we are known for our resilience and innovative thinking.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>\u201cSo, I call on all to strengthen collaborations to mobilise private sector stakeholders to develop robust programmes for the private sector to effectively function in the current reality,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Aliyu described NACCIMA as the voice of Nigerian businesses and added that its membership cuts across all sectors of the economy.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>She further added the body was also the umbrella body of all city, state, bilateral and regional chambers of commerce, including business and professional associations in the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Anthony Areh Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers has said that his administration has created a safe environment for businesses to flourish.
