Tinubu's UK Visit Should Boost Nigeria's Investment Appeal

Prince Emmanuel Odigie, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), expressed that President Bola Tinubu's visit to the United Kingdom should be a strategic move to attract investments back to Nigeria. Speaking on Thursday during an appearance on Arise Television's morning show, Odigie highlighted the importance of foreign engagements translating into concrete economic benefits rather than remaining ceremonial.

He stressed the necessity for the Nigerian government to sign agreements and memoranda of understanding and to implement them promptly instead of abandoning discussions. As the 2027 general elections approach, Odigie urged that the current administration's mandate is gradually winding down, and there is a need for the government to clearly communicate its achievements and outline convincing reasons for re-election.

He emphasized that voters expect to see visible progress as the current mandate nears its end.
