The Nigerian Economic Summit Group, NESG, an independent, non-partisan think tank organisation, has urged the nation’s political elite to encourage the development of accountability and fast-track economic reforms.
Speaking at the NESG public lecture and founder’s forum to commemorate its 30th anniversary at the Lagos Business School on Thursday, Lanre Akinbo, a board member of the NESG, said the group will deepen its work as policy interveners instead of just partners with the government.

Niyi Yusuf, Chairman of NESG, said over the past three decades, the group has served as a platform for reforming the Nigerian economic landscape.
In his address, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, governor of Lagos State, said the NESG has been one of the most influential institutions enabling economic reforms in Nigeria for over 30 years.
