About the Network of Practicing Non-Oil Exporters of Nigeria (NPNEN) Background
In the course of its advocacy and capacity-enhancement programmes, the Policy Development Facility Program phase 2 (PDFII), a FCDO funded program, had iden fied the absence of a broad- based, virile and effec ve community of prac oners as one of the weakest components of Nigeria's non-oil value chain.
The fragmented nature of the country's non-oil export sector has made it difficult to iden fy the most appropriate body with which to engage or consult when it comes to discussing issues related to the sector. Several sub-groups have developed, purpor ng to represent the non-oil export sector while, in truth, they only cater for the specific interests of their own membership along the value-chain. The need for an umbrella, credible, independent and private-sector- driven vehicle with broad-based par cipa on and leadership has always been an impera ve.
NPNEN was birthed from the series of dialogues organized by PDFII for the Non-oil Exporter Community of Prac ce. These 'Non-oil Export Dialogues' were aimed at elimina ng the various barriers to non-oil exports in Nigeria, with special focus on MSMEs. The dialogue series which focused on bringing stakeholders together, addressed such issues as access to finance, product quality and standards, export procedures and documenta ons, among others. Besides bringing the relevant MDAs in dialogue with the private sector actors, the dialogue series also devoted special sessions to building the capacity of non-oil exporters on advocacy so as to enable them to con nue to engage with relevant MDAs of government on issues of interest to non-oil exporters. Objectives of NPNEN
The core objec ve of NPNEN is to be a pla orm for dialogue and coopera on among actors in the non-oil export value chain in resolving the various challenges faced by non-oil exporters. Some of the specific objec ves of the NPNEN are:
· To serve as a pla orm for con nuous dialogue and coopera on among the actors in the non- oil export value chain. · To regularly research and deliver to Government, evidence-based sugges ons towards improving Nigeria's export performance, since advocacy has become a strategic impera ve. · To provide members with up-to-date market informa on and technical assistance on export processes and procedures. · To encourage joint export ini a ves among members. · To advocate for the interest of members in government policies and trade
3 Vision To realize increased Nigerian par cipa on in non-oil export trade, with specific a en on to the strategic posi oning of members on global compliance and compe on
Mission To create a hub of interconnected players in the non-oil export sector, mutually commi ed to leading advocacy for the crea on of an enabling environment for non-oil export trade and championing collabora ve informa on sourcing, informa on sharing, and capacity building amongst members NPNEN Executive Council

6 Rebuilding Nigeria's Economy through Non-Oil Exports: A strategic Imperative A Keynote Address delivered by Dr Titilola Akindeinde, Programme Manager, PDF Bridge
ood morning ladies and gentlemen. I welcome you to the first Annual NPNEN Non-Oil Exporters Conference, Exhibi on and Awards (NPNEN-NECEA 2021). You will all agree Gwith me that this conference, and in par cular the theme “rebuilding Nigeria's economy through non-oil exports: A Strategic Impera ve, could not be be er med than now as we con nue to grapple with the unprecedented health and economic crises brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic exposed the global economy to major disrup ons compounding the effects of the global oil price shocks. For a largely oil dependent economy like Nigeria's the crisis has led to a recession, the second within 5 years.
Although diversifica on has been a long-conceived ambi on of successive administra ons in the last four decades or more, it is now me to move from aspira on to taking decisive steps towards rebuilding this economy on a more solid founda on beyond oil. Economic diversifica on is no longer an ideal aspira onal state for the Nigeria economy, but rather an impera ve for sustainable economic growth. The pandemic, despite the hardship it brought upon the en re world also opened some windows of opportuni es for developing countries like Nigeria to reposi on themselves in the global non-oil trade space. In addi on, the newly created African Con nental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) has opened another window of less stringent condi ons for trade among the 54 economies that have signed the agreement. The AfCFTA presents expansive regional market covering 55 countries with about 1.2 billion people and cumula ve Gross Domes c Product (GDP) of over US$ 3 trillion.
Over me, Nigeria has iden fied various pathways towards diversifica on as included in various short, medium, and long-term plans of the government including the: Economic Transforma on Agenda, Change Agenda, Economic Recovery and Growth Plan and Economic Sustainability Plan. Despite emphasis on non-oil sector and pronouncements of various incen ves including the zero-oil plan designed by the Nigeria Export Promo on Council (NEPC) in 2016, zero reject policy, export, expansion grant (EEG) and export s mula on fund (ESF) designed to generate the desired non-oil export driven growth, the impacts in reality have remained rela vely low. There are challenges that hinder the realisa on of the objec ves of these incen ves. These include produc on and trade related infrastructure deficits, business environment concerns, subsis ng gaps in interac on between the non-oil export community and policymakers.
According to the WTO (2016) MSMEs account for the majority of non-oil expor ng firms and jobs globally. Studies commissioned by the UKAid PDF Programme are consistent in a ribu ng low performance of non-oil export sector to the inability of the MSMEs to par cipate compe vely in the global trade value chain due to s fling challenges in the business environment which require urgent a en on.
Some of the challenges hindering MSMEs par cipa on in non-oil export iden fied in the studies include:
7 • Dominance of informal operators in the sector which hinders their ability to upscale and maximize their poten al by limi ng access to produc on and export market enabling infrastructure
• Complex trade systems and processes. Although the Nigerian Government has invested significant resources into business environment reforms programmes and projects since 2016, a lot remains to be done to deepen the reforms and reduce the complexity of business processes
• Limited inter-agency coherence. Lack of inter-agency coopera on and collabora on towards the "one government" principle contained in the execu ve order on business environment reform. Government agencies s ll relate to one another as though they are compe tors which impact nega vely on me and cost of doing business
• Informa on and Capacity gaps. MSMEs have limited capacity to understand and meet technical regula ons, trade standard and compliance, product development, in addi on to insufficient access to export market intelligence and digital applica ons to trade leading to inadequate capacity to compete
• Limited Access to Markets and finance.
The studies proposed some important recommenda ons, including:
• On informality in the MSME space, operators should be strategically reached and integrated into the formal system to enable them to access business related development incen ves to grow their business and the non-oil export sector in general.
• On business environment complexi es, trade processes and systems, simplifica on, harmoniza on and automa on of export processes and business processes in general is required. Trade regulators are encouraged to place trade facilita on above revenue genera on to effec vely build economic prosperity on non-oil export.
• On Inter-agency coherence, it is important for trade support ins tu ons to collaborate and work with private sector with one focus in mind - process improvement and facilita on rather than excessive regula on. One-stop process points are required to create efficient, effec ve, and profitable environment for non-oil exports.
• On Capacity, MSMEs in the non-oil export ecosystem should be targets of comprehensive and easily accessible capacity build programmes par cularly in the areas of compliance to regula ons and standards, requirements for access to finance, and export readiness and access to export market.
• On access to Markets and Finance, Structures that enable foreign market linkages are
8 required including systems of aggrega on of MSMEs and linking them to structures that facilitate access to foreign market without unnecessary difficul es. Financial systems should give special considera on to the MSMEs by customizing access to finance strategies that suit their peculiari es in Nigeria.
Implementa on of these recommenda ons o en requires ac ve collabora on between the public and the private sectors. However, despite the importance and poten al of the MSMEs in these interac ons, their voices and concerns remain inadequately considered in the design of policy and processes that impact their export businesses.
Having iden fied this gap, the PDF took the lead in suppor ng MSMEs' par cipa on in the non- oil export sector by crea ng ins tu onal linkages between the exporter groups and the policy makers. This led to the crea on of a non-oil export community of prac ce in 2017 to perform the following func ons:
• Provide inclusive pla orm for linkages between non-oil export MSMEs community and the trade regula ng ins tu ons through dialogues, roundtables and • Provide opportuni es for capacity building and bridging of knowledge gaps in the non-oil export sector • Create system for collabora on to conduct actual export.
To sustain the gains from the Community of prac ce, PDF facilitated the registra on of the Network of Prac cing Non-oil Exporters of Nigerian (NPNEN) which was launched on the 3rd March 2020. NPNEN became a special purpose vehicle created to unify the voices of underrepresented groups in the non-oil export space. NPNEN is now immersed in advoca ng for favourable policies and business environment that will foster the growth of MSMEs, job crea on, contribute economic growth and poverty reduc on.
Having observed NPNEN and its ac vi es in the last one year, we are comforted by the level of its ambi on and engagements with different players in the non-oil export space including the Central Bank of Nigeria, the NEPC, NAQs, Trade Associa ons and the likes. It is our hope that the organiza on will con nue with the enthusiasm with which it has started to be an undeniable pillar in "rebuilding Nigeria's economy through non-oil export.
Thank you and have a successful conference, exhibi on, and award ceremony.
