I had the pleasure of representing Aruwa Capital Management at Investopia Africa, hosted in Nigeria for the first time. Highlights included a ministerial session led by Jumoke Oduwole, alongside Mohamed Hassan Alsuwaidi, who leads the UAE’s strategic investment initiatives. Their discussion reinforced the importance of translating political alignment into sustained private-sector engagement and long-term economic value. The conference also highlighted growing international investor interest in Nigeria and the strength of recent reforms, making it a valuable platform for dialogue and collaboration across public and private sectors.
