The federal government has revealed plans to boost the Nigerian entertainment economy and transform it into Africa’s creative, cultural and entertainment capital.
Nigeria’s newly appointed Special Adviser on Culture and Entertainment Economy, Hannatu Musawa, outlined a plan to boost growth in Nigeria’s creative economy in a statement on Thursday.
The goal, she said, is to deliver a national strategy that supports President Bola Tinubu’s plan to double the national economy to $1 trillion within eight years.
Ms Musawa noted that the current administration has demonstrated bold decisions through the president, who has a transformative agenda for Nigerians.
The special adviser said, “Nigeria sits at an inflexion point where our global cultural impact is at an all-time high, combined with a new progressive administration. The time is now to support the talent and institutions that power the cultural, entertainment and creative economy.
