\u201cA significant proportion of Nigeria\u2019s prosperity today is concentrated in the hands of a few people living primarily in 4 or 5 states and the FCT. Some of the most prosperous Nigerians are here in this room.<\/p>\n

This, in the most basic form, drives the migratory and security trends we are seeing today both in Nigeria and across the region.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The president also stated that to address population growth, security and corruption matters in developing economies, policies and programmes should focus on promoting inclusivity and collective prosperity.<\/p>\n
