The Nigerian Senate has assured foreign investors of a conducive working environment in Nigeria which it believes will help to grow their businesses and improve bilateral confidence even as it has vowed to pass laws that would enable investors feel comfortable doing business in Nigeria.
Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, gave the assurance on Thursday, while receiving the management of Metropolitan Motors Limited and BAJAJ automobile, in the National Assembly.
The automobile company was in the National Assembly to expose its new technology in Nigeria, the BAJAJ Maxima Cargo, designed to provide solutions to transpiration challenges.
Ekweremadu expressed gratitude to the Indian company for providing employment opportunities for hundreds of Nigerians by establishing an assembly plants in Nigeria, saying, “this is the right time to arrive in Nigeria, when nobody believes in us”.
He was optimistic that with the arrival of the new BAJAJ Maxima, more jobs would be created for Nigerian youths.
According to him, “today, we are challenged with unemployment and youth restiveness, which is also a function of unemployment and as long as we are creating employment for our people I’m sure we are rolling back those challenges”.
