Plans have been on to recapitalise the Development Bank of Nigeria (DBN) with 2021 as the target year for additional funds to be injected into the bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The injection of additional capital into the DBN will boost its capacity to fund more Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Next year, the government will release a grant of \u20a610 billion \u201cto BoI to support low-interest lending to SMEs\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Aside from DBN, other Development Finance Institutions in Nigeria include the Bank of Agriculture (BOA); Bank of Industry (BoI); Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria (FMBN); Nigeria Export-Import Bank (NEXIM) and The Infrastructure Bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Under Service Wide Vote in 2021, N25 billion has been earmarked for special intervention; \u20a65 billion to settle MDAs electricity bills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
N17,899,000,000 will be refunded into the special account, and another \u20a616,703,390,000 will be returned to the Asset Management Company of Nigeria (AMCON) while \u20a620 billion will be spent on special intervention programmes and projects next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nigeria High Commissioner to United Kingdom, Justice George Adesola Oguntade, on Saturday returned to the country on completion of his posting. He is a retired Justice of the Nigeria\u2019s apex court, the Supreme Court of Nigeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Ogintade was bidded farewell by the Marshal of the Diplomatic Corps, Mr William Alistair Harrison, on behalf of Her Majesty the Queen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
High Commissioner to the United Kingdom assumed duty at the Nigeria High Commission on 9th October, 2017. The eighty years old retired justice was among the ambassadors dropped by President Muhammadu Buhari. He was dropped alongside the Ambassador to the United States, Justice Sylvanus Nsofor. He, however, renewed the appointments of 12 other non-career ambassadors, promising to uphold the principle of fair representation and inclusiveness in all governance affairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A statement by presidential spokesman, Malam Garba Shehu, in July 2020 disclosed the president's decision to drop some ambassadors while 12 of them were reappointed. According to the statement, the 12 had their appointments renewed following a satisfactory performance evaluation. He however said that the president would still decide if the ambassadors would retain their current postings or be transferred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
