Nigeria will continue to be a top destination for both onshore and offshore investments, President Bola Tinubu promised the global investment community on Monday.
At the Presidential Villa in Abuja, the President welcomed Mr. Patrick Pouyanne, Group Chairman and CEO of Total Energies Worldwide, saying, “From the moment I took over, there was a clear path that we set out to pursue, and we will ensure that Nigeria remains a top-level investment choice in the dynamics of the offshore and onshore sectors.”
“We will review troublesome areas, fiscally and otherwise, to incentivize gas production in the age of transition to cleaner energy. We are ready to make a difference as a government. The good handshake that we have is for partnership and to accelerate and incentivize gas production in pursuit of the energy transition”.
He reiterated the federal government’s commitment to remove all anti-investment impediments in the country.
“We are committed to removing all cobwebs and anti-investment impediments in the oil and gas industry. We have a clear path that we are committed to pursuing. We are ready to work with you,” President Tinubu said.
