Share Nigeria has been rated as the largest economy in Africa, yet it lacks institution capacity to promote accelerated growth and economic development. Apparently worried by the nation’s underdevelopment, the former Director-General of the Nigeria Tourism Development Corporation (NTDC), Mrs Omotayo Omotosho, has identified issues to be addressed in order to change this narrative and position Nigeria for accelerated economic growth and development. Speaking at the 16th Kukoyi Memorial Lecture organised by the Nigerian Institution of Surveying (NIS), Lagos Chapter, Omotosho , a guest lecturer, urged the need to manage Nigerian border, fix issues of lack of population data, reduction of tariffs on some imported products, empowerment of the local governments, creation of enabling environment for business and investors and investment in infrastructure among others.
