President Bola Tinubu has arrived in the Indian capital, New Delhi and went straight into a meeting with Gopichand Hinduja, Chairman and CEO of the Hinduja Group of Companies, a conglomerate with a total asset portfolio exceeding $100 billion U.S. Dollars.
Accompanied to the meeting by Nigeria’s Ministers of Finance, Trade & Industry, and Foreign Affairs, Tinubu said he is in India primarily to attract investments to Nigeria with lucrative opportunities not just for the investors, but for Nigerians too through job creation and revenue generation opportunities for Nigeria’s federal and sub-national governments.
The President concluded that his task of making Nigeria great can only be achieved through teamwork and not in isolation, noting that when his investors are happy, Nigerians will rejoice by partaking in an inclusive economy where hard work is rewarded and where excellence becomes the reputation of the nation.

The Hinduja Group Chairman told the President that he was a living witness to his landmark efforts as Governor of Lagos in turning a coastal erosion and water encroachment crisis into a massive free trade zone where industry now thrives. This, he said, was partially responsible for his excitement to work with Nigeria’s new President to create a win-win partnership.
