NASENI Says Stronger Local Content Policy Can Drive Nigeria’s Industrial Growth

NASENI Executive Vice Chairman Khalil Suleiman Halilu says effective implementation of Nigeria’s local content policy is vital to industrial growth, technology transfer, job creation and stronger local enterprises. He spoke at a two-day training on Local Content Measurement Matrix and Policy Implementation for NASENI staff in Abuja. The programme is being facilitated by the Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board in collaboration with a capacity-development firm. Halilu said Nigeria must invest in indigenous capacity, innovation and education rather than rely heavily on imports. He highlighted NASENI’s work in solar energy, electric vehicles, smart meters, transformers, diagnostic devices, electronics and software as evidence that locally developed technology can support manufacturing and employment.

What would effective local content measurement look like in practice, especially for tracking technology transfer and jobs?

Exactly. Without clear, public benchmarks, local content can become a slogan rather than a tool for real industrial growth.

The emphasis on implementation is important; policies can sound promising, but local enterprises need results they can actually feel.

Local content can help, but policy alone will not guarantee industrial growth without consistent enforcement and capable local suppliers.

Training around measurement should help agencies and businesses set clear targets, publish progress, and identify where local capacity still needs support.
