The Nigerian Exchange Group (NGX) has stepped up its investor education campaign by launching a digital engagement program designed to boost financial literacy and increase retail participation in Nigeria’s capital market.

The group recently held an X Space session titled “Follow the Fundamentals: A Beginner’s Guide to the Stock Market,” which attracted more than 5,000 participants. The audience was mainly young Nigerians, first‑time investors, and retail market participants looking to learn about investment opportunities.

The session featured social media investment influencer Omiete Inko‑Tariah and representatives from Nigerian Exchange Limited and NGX Regulation Limited. Together, they clarified essential concepts related to market operations, investor protection, and safe participation.

Clifford Akpolo, Head of Group Communications and Partnerships at NGX Group, said: “Deepening retail participation is critical to building a more resilient, inclusive, and sustainable capital market. At NGX Group, we believe financial literacy is not just an educational responsibility, it is a strategic imperative for strengthening investor confidence, improving market accessibility, and expanding long‑term wealth creation opportunities for Nigerians.”
