Nigeria made history as the first African nation to be honoured as Country of Honour at the prestigious 8th China International Import Expo (CIIE) in Shanghai, and the Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission (NIPC) was at the heart of it all.
Representing the Executive Secretary/CEO, Aisha Rimi, the NIPC delegation led by Abubakar Yerima, Director of Strategic Services, and Samuel Oludare Ojewole, showcased Nigeria's bold investment story, spotlighting macroeconomic reforms, the AfCFTA advantage, and high-growth sectors including renewable energy, solid minerals, manufacturing, infrastructure and agro-processing.
At the Nigeria–China Business and Investment Forum in Shanghai, the presentation "Nigeria–China Economic Partnership: Expanding Frontiers for Investment and Industrial Growth" drew remarkable interest from major Chinese corporations exploring opportunities to invest and establish in Nigeria, including Cherry New Energy Automotive, ZXH Petroleum & Chemical Group, Anhui Xinlong Packaging and Anhui Changda Electric Equipment.
Through its strategic leadership, NIPC continues to champion Nigeria's visibility on the global investment stage, opening doors for transformative partnerships and positioning Nigeria as Africa's preferred investment destination.
