It has increased the nation\u2019s foreign reserves assets and shown that using the Nigerian Naira to purchase a liquid asset traded in United States Dollars, such as gold, is a viable strategy. This transaction has also underscored the potential of the National Gold Purchase Program to enhance fiscal and monetary stability.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also disclosed that the first commercial transaction has delivered +US$5 million increase in Nigerian\u2019s foreign reserves assets, 70+ kilograms of gold refined to the London Bullion Market Good Delivery Standard and successful aggregation of locally mined gold thereby injecting about NGN6 billion into the rural economy.<\/p>\n<p>Receiving and displaying a symbolic bar, President Tinubu commended the Ministry for achieving a major milestone in the administration\u2019s drive to diversify the economy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is another concrete step towards the diversification process under the Renewed Hope Agenda\u201d, the President said.<\/p>\n<p>In her presentation, the Executive Secretary of the Solid Minerals Development Fund, Fatimah Shinkafi said the London Bullion Market Good Delivery Standard is the globally recognised stringent and trusted standard that enables the global trade in gold and silver bars.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnly gold and silver bars that meet our Good Delivery standards are acceptable in the settlement of a Loco London contract \u2013 where the bullion traded is physically held in London\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Shinkafi said, through the efforts of the National Gold Purchase Program under the Ministry of Solid Minerals Development, Nigeria has joined a select group of countries bolstering their gold reserves by purchasing gold in local currency to foster economic confidence, enhance currency stability, and create a more attractive environment for foreign investment<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Says gold injects N6bn into rural economy Alake
