The Federal Government has launched the Disinflation and Growth Acceleration Strategy (DGAS), a coordinated initiative aimed at curbing inflation, enhancing fiscal coordination, and driving inclusive growth across key sectors of the economy. The strategy is being jointly implemented by the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Budget and Economic Planning to ensure a more resilient economic framework.

Dr. Doris Nkiruka Uzoka-Anite, the Minister of State for Finance, highlighted that the DGAS focuses on aligning fiscal discipline with strategic economic planning. She noted that this approach is designed to restore investor confidence, increase productivity, and support macroeconomic stability while promoting sustainable development nationwide.

Officials say the strategy is expected to create jobs, improve living standards, and enhance the overall welfare of Nigerians by fostering a more predictable and growth-oriented economic environment. Through DGAS, the government aims to address structural challenges and position Nigeria for long-term prosperity.
