The UN agencies in Nigeria have emphasised the need for greater investment in the development of Micro, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises to drive inclusive economic growth in the country.
The call was made during the commemoration of the 2025 International MSMEs Day on Monday in Abuja.
The event was jointly organised by the UN Industrial Development Organisation, International Labour Organisation, UN Development Programme, UN Information Centre, and the World Intellectual Property Organisation.
Mr Philbert Johnson, Director, UNIDO Sub-regional Office, Abuja, represented by Mr Reuben Bamidele, National Programme Officer at UNIDO, said MSMEs play an important role in nation-building and must be supported to grow sustainably.
