In his words:
“The present administration has worked tirelessly to diversify the economy beyond oil by creating opportunities for investment in the non-oil sector especially in the areas of agriculture, ICT, health, manufacturing, construction and other sectors with positive results. Investors in Belgium and Luxemburg should see Nigeria as their destination.”
