Tinubu Departs Abuja Monday For G-20 Summit In India

President Bola Tinubu, who awaits the decision of the Election Tribunal over his controversial election victory, will on Monday depart Abuja for New Delhi, India, to attend the G-20 Leaders’ summit.

A statement on Sunday by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale said he will be attending the two-day summit on the special invitation of Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Modi.

In the statement titled ‘President Tinubu set to attend G-20 Summit in India with investment attraction topping Nigeria’s agenda,’ Ngelale stated that Tinubu aims to leverage the platform to attract global capital and promote increased foreign direct investments in key labour-intensive sectors of Nigeria’s economy for job creation and revenue expansion.

“He will use this opportunity to highlight Nigeria’s attractiveness as an investment destination, specifically outlining his cross-sectoral reform plan as encapsulated by the Renewed Hope Agenda.

“Given the President’s renowned experience in attracting investment to Lagos State, leading industrialists have sought separate private engagements with him at the summit,” the statement said.
