Emir of Kano, His Highness Khalifa Muhammadu Sanusi II, has urged foreign investors to take advantage of the booming business environment in Nigeria to invest their resources for maximum profit margin.

Khalifa Sanusi solicited investment opportunities in Nigeria while addressing global investors and captains of industries at the International Financial Investment and Trade Conference holding in Tunisia.

The former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria explained that Nigeria is one of the fastest-growing economies in Africa, with highly competitive markets and business opportunities readily available for capital investors.

Sanusi essentially appealed to business and investment giants to tap into the robust economy with an enabling environment in the areas of Manufacturing, Agriculture, ICT, Innovation, and the financial sector to grow their investments.

The royal highness used the occasion to showcase the growing fortune and global investment of Alh. Aliko Dangote, who started his empire taking advantage of the Nigerian business environment, believed foreign investors should capitalise on a similar advantage.

Sanusi made a strong case for investment opportunities in his home country and assured that socio-economic and natural endowments are major advantages investors should consider to build viral growth in Kano.

According to Emir Sanusi, Kano remains a destination for trade, commerce, and industries, with a population of 22 million, natural resources, a strategic location, and well-established international markets that serve many countries in West and Central Africa and beyond. That’s apart, he said, from the incentives provided by the Kano State Government, which is another avenue for ease of doing business.

A release by Munir Sanusi Bayero, Galadiman Kano and Chief of Staff to Emir Sanusi said the conference attracted prominent personalities, including the Governor of Bauchi State, Sen. Bala Mohammed; Hon. Minister of Women Affairs, Haj. Imaan Suleiman; Amb. Bolaji, representing the Hon. Minister of State for Foreign Affairs; Bianca Ojukwu; and the DG of NEPZA.
