Nigeria’s Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has urged civil servants to take advantage of opportunities in the capital market to build wealth, enhance financial security and actively participate in national economic growth.
Speaking during a strategic engagement with the Head of Service of the Federation, Dame Didi Walson-Jack and top officials of the service, Emomotimi Agama, director general of the SEC said the capital market should no longer be seen as distant from the everyday lives of public servants but as a viable platform for long-term savings and investment.
Agama stressed that civil servants, beyond earning monthly salaries, must position themselves as investors and stakeholders in the economy, noting that this would improve their financial stability both during service and in retirement.
