Nigerian Governors have called on investors to take advantage of the country’s vast and largely untapped deep shore and inland basin oil reserves.
Nasarawa State Governor Abdullahi Sule, who represented the Chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF), AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, made the call in Abuja at the launch of a new investment platform known as NGF Investopedia.
The NGF Investopedia is to serve as a one-stop entry point, guiding investors not only on where to invest, but also on how to invest with confidence.
According to the Governors, the recent reforms introduced by President Bola Tinubu have provided more financial resources to all levels of government, creating the most conducive investment climate in years.
They stressed the need for deliberate efforts to attract more investors into Nigeria.
Governor Sule in his key note address on behalf of Nigerian Governors said the Investopedia platform is designed to position Nigeria as an attractive investment hub and promote inclusive growth by tapping into both global and African financing opportunities.
