Qatari delegation arrives Nigeria
A delegation from the Future Union Group, Qatar, led by H.E. Sheikh Abdul-Rahman Hamad N. H. Al-Thani, a member of the Qatari ruling family, has arrived in Nigeria to explore opportunities for direct investment in critical sectors of the nation’s economy.
The visit is aimed at fostering strategic partnerships and collaborations between Qatar and Nigeria.
Upon arrival, Dr. Abdelgalil Sharaf, Chief Executive Officer of the Future Union Group, expressed optimism regarding the potential for mutually beneficial business relationships between the two nations.
According to him, the Group’s primary objective is to channel Arab funds into the development of Africa’s vast resources through strategic investments in various economic sectors.
The visit, facilitated by Princess Adebowale Odutola, Chairman of Elan Vert Nigeria Limited, aligns with the Federal Government’s Renewed Hope Agenda, which seeks to advance economic diversification, industrial growth, and job creation through foreign direct investment.
The Qatari delegation is scheduled to engage with Nigerian stakeholders, including Princess Odutola and Dr. Abdul-Azeez Olajide Adediran, in an informal welcome reception later today.
The engagement is expected to yield fruitful discussions and potential partnerships in key sectors, including infrastructure, energy, agriculture, technology, and trade. (The Guardian)
