The Federal Government has expressed strong support for fresh international investments being channelled into Nigeria through the efforts of the Silicon Valley Nigeria Economic Development (SV-NED), as it hosted a high-level delegation of investors from Vietnam in Abuja.
Led by Allen Le Nam, Chairman of Allen Le & Partners, International Investment Consulting Joint Stock Company, the delegation met with the Minister of Solid Minerals Development, Dele Alake, alongside SV-NED executives headed by Amina Temitope Labinjo-Ajayi.
Speaking after the closed-door meeting, Alake confirmed the government’s interest in the initiative and described the engagement as a welcome development for the country’s economic growth.
“We are delighted by the coming of Mr. Allen Le. We had a discussion with the delegation and SV-NED management. It is not yet time to open our discussions,” Alake was quoted in a statement.
Le pledged to mobilise multi-billion-dollar investments into Nigeria, particularly in sectors such as mining, green energy, aviation, and housing. He emphasised that the private sector should be recognised as the engine of national development.
