The unveiling was done at a Business Breakfast organised by the Kaduna Investment Promotion Agency (KADIPA) on Wednesday, where a cross-section of the business community and senior Government officials had an interface.
The document, which is the first of its kind in Nigeria, is a comprehensive roadmap designed to integrate low-income communities into the economic value chain, foster gender equality, and create sustainable livelihoods.
