Presidency tells why investors now find Nigeria ‘attractive’

The Presidency through Sunday Dare, Special Adviser to President Tinubu on Media and Public Communication, has released reasons why investors now see Nigeria “attractive”.

According to Sunday Dare: “Why Investors now find Nigeria attractive.

“About 30% goes to fixed-income instruments.

Falling inflation.

Potential interest rate cuts.

Naira Exchange rate stability.

Attractive Equities.

FX Transparency.

Current Business Index rose to 113.6 points in June 2026, up from 109.8 points in May 2025.

“CardinalStone’s mid-year outlook increased its bet on Nigerian assets, moving from a 65:35 local-to-global portfolio split to a more bullish 70:30 ratio. This is because Nigeria, despite its many challenges, is showing signs of resilience and opportunity that global markets currently lack.

“It is glaring to the viable minds that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s economic reforms are working. Smart and bold decisions of the President to float the naira and unify the exchange rate are behind this successful mission. That move has brought more trust into how our currency works, and now investors can take their money out easily when they need to.

“Government treasury bills and bonds now give 20% to 30% returns, which are some of the best in the world. That alone is pulling in serious money, showing that our financial system is strong and attractive.

“Removing fuel subsidy and blocking leakages in government spending also sent a clear message that Nigeria is no longer dwelling in the shortsighted zone of prosperity. We are now thinking long-term.

“Big projects like the Dangote Refinery and the push for Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) and the diversification of our economy show that Nigeria is now serious about building things and, improving the welfare of her citizens.

“All these steps are making Nigeria the top choice again for investors in Africa. The Tinubu government is sticking to clear, market-friendly policies that protect investors’ interests.”
