Economic reforms introduced by President Bola Tinubu are driving a significant surge in domestic capital and stock market growth, according to a prominent media group.
The Tinubu Media Volunteers (TMV) stated that the administration’s policies have revitalised the Nigerian Exchange (NGX), leading to a “surge” in local investment and improved corporate balance sheets.
‘Renewed confidence’
In a statement issued by Chairman Chukwudi Enekwechi and Secretary Segun Ogedengbe, the group argued that the shift toward local capital mobilisation is a direct result of the President’s macro-economic strategy.
“Local capital and domestic corporates are responding positively to the stock exchange market,” the statement read. “The surge of investors in the capital market is recording huge returns on investments.”
The group highlighted several key indicators of growth observed over the past year:
- Market Growth: Stock markets have risen by more than 50% in 2025.
- Capital Raising: Corporate issuers are successfully raising new capital.
- Retail Participation: A noticeable return of retail investors to the trading floor.
- Governance: An improvement in corporate governance standards across the board.
Long-term stability
The TMV claims that the current trajectory is positioning Nigeria to handle “larger transactions and broader wealth creation.”
Investors have reportedly seen significant gains over the last two and a half years, benefiting from both capital appreciation and enhanced dividends.
“There is no doubt that this is a sign of investors’ renewed confidence in the Nigerian economy,” the group added.
Since taking office, President Tinubu has embarked on a series of ambitious—and often controversial—reforms aimed at restoring fiscal sustainability. While these have led to increased living costs for many Nigerians, the TMV insists the agenda is successfully restoring stability and attracting the long-term investment necessary for national growth.
