“My staff are working tirelessly; we have our teams in investigation and enforcement departments, working hard to achieve the set up goals of the agency.
“We have also decentralised the registration processes to states, especially on our Small and Medium Enterprises programme to save time.
“It is also to facilitate the policy of the Federal Government on the ease of doing business,” she said.
