Joseph Olasunkanmi Tegbe, director-general (DG)Nigeria-China Strategic Partnership (NCSP), has disclosed that the agency will strengthen relationships with the Nigeria Investment Promotion Commission (NIPC) to maximise foreign investment opportunities.
He made this known during a recent visit of the NIPC management team to the agency as part of efforts to bolster foreign investment under the Nigeria-China Strategic Partnerships.
To this end, Tegbe hosted Aisha Rimi, the executive secretary and chief executive officer of the Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission to deepen collaboration seen at promoting investment into Nigeria.
According to him, the meeting underscored the ongoing collaboration between the NCSP and the NIPC, particularly in facilitating the seamless entry and establishment of Chinese businesses in Nigeria.
Over recent months, both entities have worked together to create a more investor-friendly environment for Chinese enterprises.
The partnership seeks to deepen economic ties between Nigeria and China, leveraging Chinese investment to support Nigeria’s economic diversification efforts—especially in key sectors.
“This initiative aligns with the Renewed Hope agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, which prioritizes economic growth, job creation, and inclusive national development.”
By attracting more foreign direct investment (FDI) through this strategic collaboration, NCSP and NIPC aim to stimulate industrial growth, enhance technology transfer, and create opportunities that will ultimately improve the livelihoods of ordinary Nigerians.
