Nigeria’s challenges are huge investment opportunities, says Osinbajo

Vice president Yemi Osinbajo has indicated that the huge development challenges facing Nigeria and the rest of Africa were excellent opportunities for ground-breaking investments and innovation.

He stated this as a guest at an interactive session hosted by the council on foreign relations, CFR, in New York.

The vice president hinged his discussion on four areas including population, and environment with respect to climate change.

He also identified the challenges of terrorism, violent Islamic extremism, and resource conflicts.

Osinbajo noted that what is happening in the continent in the coming years would impact positively or negatively on the fortunes of the world.

The vice president said although the challenges were huge, they were excellent opportunities for innovation by both local and foreign players.
