The Fiscal Responsibility Commission (FRC) has launched its 2025 Knowledge-Sharing Series, aimed at advancing budgetary reforms to strengthen governance and promote fiscal responsibility in Nigeria.

Delivering the keynote address, Dr. Emeka Ejikonye, a public budgeting expert and Principal Consultant/CEO of ReGo Consulting, emphasized the need for government officials to move beyond “tunnel vision governance” and actively engage with citizens.

He stressed that the ultimate goal of governance is to enhance the quality of life for Nigerians.

In his remarks, FRC Executive Chairman, Victor Muruako, commended the fiscal reforms introduced by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, expressing optimism that they will soon translate into tangible economic benefits for Nigerians.

He highlighted the removal of oil subsidies and the implementation of tax reforms as critical steps toward economic stability. However, he cautioned that the effectiveness of these reforms depends on their proper execution by government agencies.

Reaffirming its commitment to transparency, accountability, and sound financial management, the FRC pledged to continue driving reforms that will ensure sustainable development and long-term economic growth in Nigeria.
