WORDS FROM THE GROUP MANAGING DIRECTOR (GMD)
Coming into the second half of this decade, Nigeria faced a host of challenges including a sharp increase in the international prices of Crude Oil, the continued security issues especially in the Niger Delta region, the devaluation of the Naira, and economic contraction. While not sanguine about any of the challenges that we face as a country or business, we continue to be optimistic about Nigeria in the long run.
Nigeria has shown tremendous maturity in conducting a free and fair election that resulted in the erstwhile President losing and conceding power in an election for the first time.
President Muhammadu Buhari enjoys broad support across the country and has a reputation as a pro-governance and pro-reform leader. We must also remember that Nigeria is Africa’s largest economy with a population of over 200 million people.
