He assured that the Government would create an enabling operating environment for the media in Nigeria, through favourable policies and incentives.
“We understand that transparency is not just a principle to be upheld but a foundation for good governance.
“Therefore, we are committed to ensuring that our communication channels remain open, accessible, and informative.
“We strive to provide accurate, timely, and relevant information to the public on matters of governance, policy, and programme,” he said.
The minister said the administration had recorded some salient achievements in the economy through the implementation of some macroeconomic reforms.
“Our foreign exchange market has stabilised and our beloved Naira is getting stronger daily,” Idris said.
He said the recent establishment of the Presidential Economic Coordination Council and the Economic Management Team Emergency Task Force underscored President Bola Tinubu’s commitment to fostering a unified strategy for economic management.
He said the establishment of the teams would leverage the expertise and insights of key stakeholders from both the public and private sectors.
