Speaking ahead of the conference, Mr. Edun emphasized the importance of mobilizing domestic savings to fuel investment. “A trusted and stable financial system, anchored by strong institutions, is essential to lifting millions out of poverty and driving Nigeria’s transition to a $1 trillion economy,” he said.

He urged more organizations to collaborate with FiBOP, assuring sponsors of extensive visibility through media coverage, publicity initiatives, and brand promotion.
He added that the event offers a unique opportunity for stakeholders to craft actionable solutions in technology, agriculture, renewable energy, insurance, and financial services, while reducing reliance on oil revenues.
FiBOP, a Corporate Affairs Commission–registered association of seasoned online publishers and editors, has consistently used its platform to advance informed reporting, wealth creation, and inclusive economic development in Nigeria and across Africa.
