EU Partners Nigeria Fashion Week 2026 - Fashion

 

The European Union (EU) Delegation to Nigeria and ECOWAS has partnered with Nigeria Fashion Week 2026 in a move aimed at promoting sustainable fashion, circular production and environmentally responsible practices within Nigeria’s growing fashion industry.

The partnership will support the Going Green 5 Initiative, a major component of Nigeria Fashion Week 2026, which is being held under the theme, “Beyond the Runway: Fashion and Culture at the Heart of the Green & Blue Economy.”

The collaboration is expected to bring greater attention to the environmental impact of fashion while encouraging designers, manufacturers, entrepreneurs and other players in the creative industry to embrace greener approaches to production and business.

The initiative also seeks to demonstrate that fashion can go beyond clothing and entertainment to contribute to environmental sustainability, job creation and the wider green and blue economy.

Through the partnership, Nigeria Fashion Week is expected to provide a platform for conversations and practical initiatives around issues such as responsible production, reuse and recycling of materials, reduction of waste and the development of sustainable fashion enterprises.

The organisers said the focus on sustainability reflects the changing realities of the fashion industry, where consumers and businesses are increasingly paying attention to how products are made and their impact on the environment.

Nigeria Fashion Week 2026 is being organised in collaboration with the Federal Ministry of Art, Culture, Tourism and the Creative Economy, Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs, National Council for Arts and Culture (NCAC) and the Nigerian Tourism Development Authority (NTDA).

Other partners supporting the fashion week include Bizness Group, Africa Magic, Blue Seal Energy Group, Transcorp Hilton Hotel, Tetrazini, Soul Lounge Resorts, Africa CEO Club, WAP TV, Qualitrend Group, News Central, Prince Donatus, Kennis FM and PG Records.

The involvement of the EU Delegation adds an international dimension to the event, highlighting the growing connection between Nigeria’s creative economy and global conversations around sustainability.

Beyond showcasing designers and Nigerian fashion talent, the 2026 edition is positioned as a platform for bringing fashion, culture, tourism, enterprise and environmental responsibility together.

The organisers believe that placing sustainability at the heart of the event will help encourage a new generation of Nigerian fashion businesses to see environmental responsibility not simply as a global requirement, but as an opportunity for innovation, enterprise and long-term growth.

Nigeria didn't participate in any Industrial Revolution in the way Britain and parts of Europe did. The raw materials they extracted from us powered their Industrial Revolution while locking us out of it, now EU is treating sustainability as the next logical stage after industrial growth. In reality, Nigeria is being asked to adopt the environmental standards of industrialised economies without having received comparable access to industrial capacity, technology, infrastructure or wealth.

In Nigeria we have long reused clothing, repaired garments, repurposed fabrics and operated small-scale textile businesses. These practices should not simply be rebranded as a new European sustainability agenda. The EU should recognise existing Nigerian knowledge and enterprise rather than implying that environmental responsibility arrives through an EU partnership. The EU can bugger off with their "sustainable fashion" crap.

Why We Floated The Naira by Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Governor Micheal Olayemi Cardoso - Politics

Image
  The Governor, Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, Mr Olayemi Cardoso, has said that the apex bank under him took the bold step of floating the Naira in the foreign exchange market in order to bring the official exchange rate closer to market reality. About  three CBN Governors before Cardoso had toyed with the floatation option when they faced constant excess demand for foreign exchange and exchange rate pressures. They all abandoned the option due to fear of massive depreciation of the value and the contagion effect across the macroeconomic space. But Cardoso, speaking for the first time on his journey on the saddle so far and focusing on the turbulence in the financial market following his assumption of office a year ago, explained that the floatation policy was meant to address the disparity between the official and parallel rates which encouraged arbitrage and speculation, eroding trust in the market. While addressing members of the Harvard Club of Nigeria in Lagos at the week...
