Obasanjo Reveals Nigeria’s Economic Solution

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo says Nigeria needs to mobilise private sector investments to fast track sustainable economic advancement.

Obasanjo said this in Bauchi on Wednesday, at the inauguration of the International Conference Centre, ICC, constructed by Bala Mohammed’s administration.

Obasanjo highlighted that both local and international investments must be mobilised to accelerate national economic growth.

“With what we have, we can show the world that we are part and parcel of the world. What others have and pride themselves about, is not more than what we have.

“Some people don’t even have half of what we have. We have a world packed centre which can be developed and be made one of the tourist attractions in Nigeria.

“The people that will be coming here, will be able to stay in the hotels, interact, have discussions and conferences in this ICC, and make Bauchi a centre of attraction and tourism for Nigeria.

“Not only are we commissioning this, we are starting with a conference to talk about investment, and what do we need in Nigeria today? We need to mobilise investments from Local and from the international,” he said.
