The President-elect, Bola Tinubu on Wednesday departed Nigeria for Europe on a working visit.<\/p>\n
While in Europe, Tinubu will finetune the transition plans, programmes, and policy options with some of his key aides without distractions.<\/p>\n
During the visit, the President-elect will engage with investors and other key allies with the goal of marketing investment opportunities in the country and his administration\u2019s readiness to enable a business-friendly climate through policies and regulations.<\/p>\n
A statement by his Media Aide, Tunde Rahman said: \u201cAlready, meetings with multi-sectoral actors in Europe\u2019s business community including manufacturing, agriculture, tech and energy have been lined up.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs\u00edw\u00e1j\u00fa Tinubu hopes to convince them of Nigeria\u2019s readiness to do business under his leadership through mutually-beneficial partnerships premised on jobs creation and skills acquisition.<\/p>\n
\u201cReviving the country\u2019s economy forms a major plank of Tinubu\u2019s Renewed Hope agenda and the meeting is part of his efforts to re-establish Nigeria\u2019s importance in the global economic chain and create empowering opportunities for the country\u2019s huge youth population.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe President-elect has hitherto promised to hit the ground running and the visit is reflective of his commitment to the promise as he has already begun talks with global actors in the important areas of the economy and security.\u201d<\/p>\n
Before he left the country, Tinubu met with the House of Representatives candidates for Speaker and Deputy Speaker endorsed by his party, the All Progressives Congress, Hon. Tajudeen Abbas and Hon. Benjamin Kalu, who were presented to him by the Joint Task Team of the House.<\/p>\n
He is scheduled to return shortly for preparations towards his official swearing-in as the 16th President of Nigeria on May 29, 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
