FRENCH GOVERNMENT IMPRESSED BY NIGERIA'S GROWTH UNDER PRESIDENT JONATHAN, PLEDGES €240 BILLION FOR INVESTMENT.... SAYS IF YOU’RE NOT IN NIGERIA, YOU'RE NOT IN AFRICA

French Minister of Finance and Economy, Mr. Michael Sapin says, under President Jonathan, Nigeria has recorded the highest growth in the last few years, which is very impressive, adding, if you're not in Nigeria, you're not in Africa, reports Theherald.

He said, Nigeria would be a major beneficiary of a 240 billion Euro fund being earmarked by France for investment in Africa as the European nation renews its investment drive on the continent.

With a huge market and investment potentials, he noted that “no serious investor can ignore Nigeria, given the large population, highly skilled human capital and massive untapped natural resources.

Sapin said, perception about Africa is changing rapidly, especially after a few years of steady impressive economic growth, even when most regions of the world were experiencing slow growth or even recession.

French investors have to know this, that France needs Nigeria.

The French President, Francis Hollande who unfolded France’s renewed investment plans in Africa at the ‘French-African Forum for a Shared Growth’ in Paris, France at the weekend said "Nigeria" is our future.

It has recorded the highest growth in the last few years, and it is a continent with great demographic evolution, Hollande noted.
