VP SHETTIMA AT CANEX WEEKEND 2026: INVESTING IN NIGERIA’S CREATIVE FUTURE
Nigeria’s creative talents have earned global recognition. The next challenge is to turn that talent into lasting wealth, businesses and jobs.
At CANEX Weekend 2026 in Lagos, Vice President Kashim Shettima brings renewed attention to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s investments in the creative economy, including the Investment in Digital and Creative Enterprises (iDICE) programme, the Creative Economy Development Fund, and the Creative Leap Acceleration Programme (CLAP).
The message is simple: Our young people have the talent. They deserve the financing, opportunities and platforms to make a living from it.
