The governor, who was represented by his Deputy, Mr Kayode Alabi, recalled that the state has put in place mechanisms to forge the state ahead in the national ease of doing business by setting up the Kwara Ease of Doing Business Council, on which KWACCIMA is represented.
He added that the 13-point Ease of Doing Business Reforms Critical Game Changers and Priority Actions is borne out of the belief that sustainable growth comes when businesses grow and impact job creation and government revenue for investment in critical infrastructure and basic amenities.
