We will make Nigeria investment-friendly —NIPC
Font size:
Mustafa Bello, NIPC executive secretary, stated this during a visit to the managing director of News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), Oluremi Oyo.
He regretted that smaller countries like Ghana were getting the kind of attention Nigeria should be getting from investors.
This, he noted, was because Ghana and some other small countries had streamlined and synchronised their investment policies to make them more attractive.
He assured, however, that “the NIPC is determined to turn things around and make Nigeria take its rightful position in the heart of investors, so as to improve on Foreign Direct Investments.”
He noted that the NIPC, created in 1999, is still a young institution, but that it was making steady progress to take Nigeria to greater heights.
Bello requested the cooperation of NAN in the areas of gathering and dissemination of information on Nigeria’s investment climate as one of the sure ways of showcasing Nigeria to potential investors.
Earlier, Oyo told the visitor that NAN was also making steady progress in its determination to become a truly multi-media agency to take its proper seat of being Africa’s biggest and leading news agency.
She gave Mustafa the assurance that the agency would always partner with the NIPC for the mutual benefit of the two organisations.
“We in NAN find ourselves as being the only news agency that works round the clock in the entire West African subregion,” she said.
Oyo said the agency had recorded some mileage in serving radio clients voice clips and was poised to begin to transmit video clips to television stations. (NAN)
