Former Nigerian president and patron of the Democratic Republic of Congo, DRC-Nigeria Business Council, Olusegun Obasanjo has disclosed that the impressive report of the Council barely two years after its formation, would propel him to stay with the body.
The council was formed to cultivate a conducive environment for investment and collaboration between the two countries. Obasanjo who spoke at the stakeholders meeting of the Council in Lagos at the weekend, asserted that the reports from the sectors were fascinating and encouraging, with room to do more. In a statement by his Special Assistant on Media, Kehinde Akinyemi, on Tuesday, Obasanjo said: “With the progress I have got this evening, I am not going anywhere.
“Subsequent to our membership growth, we convened fruitful meetings in both Kinshasa and Lagos, focusing on thematic areas ripe for investment. These include oil and gas, energy, mining, agriculture, urban development, and transportation—sectors that hold the potential to drive significant economic growth and development in our nations.
