The South East Development Commission appeared before the Senate Committee on South East Development Commission yesterday as part of the National Assembly's constitutional oversight process and welcomes every opportunity to account for its stewardship of public resources. Several issues from today's session have attracted public commentary. The Commission has addressed them directly: what the Abuja office expenditure actually covers, what "implied expenditure" means and why that money has not left our accounts, and how available funds have been deployed to build an institution and advance regional projects in the absence of any capital budget release.

The SEVCP is a strategic platform designed to catalyse the region's digital, innovation and technology ecosystem by connecting founders to capital, mentorship and growth opportunities. Creating pathways from innovation to investment. #SEVCP #SEDC #RenewedHopeAgenda #SEV2050

Today, we celebrate a life deeply connected to Nigeria’s journey. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s decades of public service reflect sustained commitment to governance, reform, and nation-building. At a time when leadership is defined by complexity, his role remains central to shaping Nigeria’s economic direction. As the country navigates this critical period, we recognise the importance of resilience, clarity, and long-term thinking in leadership. On behalf of the South East Development Commission, we wish Mr. President continued strength, wisdom, and good health in service to the nation. Happy Birthday, Mr. President. #SEDC #RenewedHope
