The All Progressives Congress, APC, in Lagos State says President Bola Tinubu’s reforms have made Nigeria an investors’ delight, restoring global confidence in the nation.
APC Spokesperson, Mr. Seye Oladejo, in a statement in Lagos, expressed the party’s satisfaction with the renewed wave of investor confidence in Nigeria’s economy under Tinubu.
He noted recent interest shown by top global financiers, including billionaire investor Bayo Ogunlesi, Chairman and CEO of Global Infrastructure Partners, GIP.
Oladejo said Ogunlesi affirmed that Nigeria had become an investors’ delight and Africa’s foremost destination for capital and opportunity.
He added that Ogunlesi’s global reputation in aviation, energy, and infrastructure further strengthened the credibility of this renewed optimism.
Oladejo said Ogunlesi’s engagement with the Tinubu administration and interest in critical sectors like infrastructure, power, and transport signaled a new era of confidence.

He noted that this development followed several investor engagements led by Tinubu, including meetings with Microsoft, ExxonMobil, Shell, Siemens Energy, and GE Vernova.
According to him, these companies have reaffirmed their readiness to expand operations and inject fresh capital into Nigeria’s economy.
Oladejo highlighted Microsoft’s digital partnership, Siemens’ power expansion, and Shell’s multibillion-dollar gas investments as proof of growing confidence in Nigeria’s stability.
He said Tinubu’s decisive reforms — including foreign exchange unification, fuel subsidy removal, and tax rationalization — had restored policy clarity and credibility.
APC spokesman stated that these bold actions sent a clear message to global markets that Nigeria was open for business and committed to rewarding investors.
He said Tinubu’s focus on infrastructure renewal and public-private partnerships, PPPs, was also transformative.
According to him, projects such as the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway, Abuja-Kano rail, and Lekki Deep Sea Port corridor have attracted new investment opportunities.
He added that Nigeria’s energy and gas expansion drive had also gained international attention.
Oladejo cited the $14 billion investment commitments from Middle Eastern investors and corporations during Tinubu’s visits to Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
He mentioned ongoing partnerships with TotalEnergies, NLNG, and NDPHC as evidence of progress toward energy sufficiency and competitiveness.
Oladejo described these milestones as products of consistent policy, credible management, and Tinubu’s understanding of the global marketplace.
He said Tinubu’s reformist approach had replaced uncertainty with confidence and rhetoric with tangible results.
Oladejo added that while the opposition spread cynicism, the Tinubu administration was winning global respect and attracting job-creating investors.
He said that from Ogunlesi’s renewed interest to Siemens’ power expansion, the verdict from investors was clear: Nigeria is back on the global investment map.
The spokesperson said under Tinubu, Nigeria was not just an investors’ delight but Africa’s economic frontier, open for business and growth.
