The #ExecutiveOrder7 Ministry is growing. That’s the Road Tax Credit Scheme launched by PMB Jan 2019.

Mainstream Energy Solutions Ltd @Officialmesl has now applied to be a part of the Scheme. They will be financing 3 roads, totaling 204km, at total cost of N74.4B.

Two quotes from HM @tundefashola, today:

“We can clearly see that the appetite for the private sector to invest in public infrastructure is increasing.”

“There’s a distance between public policy & results, it takes some time [for manifestation], but we are now seeing results.”

HM @FMICNigeria, Alh Lai Mohammed: We had a fruitful meeting with @Facebook yesterday. We expressed our displeasure that Facebook has become a platform of choice for some Nigerians in the diaspora to incite violence and arson, and they need to do more to tackle this.”

Alh Lai Mohammed, HM @FMICNigeria: The BBC did a [report] on this and found that many ‘social media warriors’ in the diaspora have been inciting people in Nigeria to violence, on Facebook. We had robust discussions on this with FB & their response was quite encouraging.
