Episode Details

For decades, Abuja has stood as Nigeria’s administrative capital, while Lagos remains its economic heartbeat. But recent decisions by the Federal Government are blurring that line once again.

The planned relocation of the Bank of Industry headquarters from Abuja to Lagos has sparked questions about efficiency, cost, legality, and regional balance  especially as other federal agencies have also shifted operations back to the commercial capital.

On Nigeria Daily, we examine why the Federal Government is moving the BOI headquarters to Lagos, what happened at the Federal Executive Council meeting where the decision was taken, how it could affect the economy, and whether the move is backed by law  and what it means for Nigerians across the country.
