The British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Dr Richard Montgomery, has reiterated the commitment of the United Kingdom to boost foreign investment in Nigeria.

This is as he described Nigeria as one of the UK’s most important partners in Africa.

He stated this while addressing the importance of the visit of the UK, Minister for Business and Trade, Kemi Badenoch, who arrived in Nigeria on Sunday on a three-day visit.

This was disclosed in a statement by Senior Press and Public Affairs Officer, Communications Lead, Prosperity and Economic Development of the British High Commission in Abuja, Ndidiamaka Eze.

He stated that the Minister’s visit will present the ongoing efforts by both countries to boost the UK-Nigeria trade relationship and unlock new investment opportunities.
