It also takes in to account the studies for ease of doing business in Nigeria. Figures from the appropriate organization have also been collated by him, as quoted by the This Day Live.
A huge market potential exists in Nigeria for overseas investors said the delegate. Improvement has been recorded in the nation with respect to the registration of firms and access to credit options. Its economy has also recovered of late, added Dr. Lucassen. However, there are areas for improvement too. These include the supply of power, infrastructure, and security in specific areas, he added.
