Edo Set To Host 2025 Niger Delta Economic & Investment Summit

All appear set as Edo State hosts the 2025 edition of the Niger Delta Economic and Investment Summit (NDEIS) organised by the Regional Economic and Investment Summits/Festivals Group.

The choice of Edo State, according to the organisers, was to keep faith with the rotational policy of the organisers in ensuring that the annual economic summit is hosted across the nine states of the Niger Delta region. Last year, it took place in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, amid a high record of milestones.

In a statement made available to LEADERSHIP to unveil the host state, the founder of NDEIS, Amb. Kenule Nwiya, said the organisation has secured the partnership of more key stakeholders and was poised to host even a more colourful summit this year.

While noting that preparations have started towards the hosting of the 2025 event, Amb. Nwiya said it’s continuing with its partnership with the Ministry of Regional Development, headed by Engr. Abubakar Momoh, thanking the Minister for his support, which he said was very instrumental in hosting the summit last year.

He commended the governor of Edo State, Senator Monday Okpebholo, for indicating interest to host the summit, which he said will bring massive economic and investment value to the state.

He announced as strategic partners the Presidential Economic and Advisory Council and the Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council headed by the DG, Prince Adeniyi Adeyemi.

While affirming confidence in the two bodies to promote and protect investment in the country, Amb. Nwiya expressed hope that having both organisations on board was a plus for the Economic and Investment Summit and NDIFTE.

He noted that the regional investment summit will be a build-up to the World Investment Summit being jointly organised by the Presidential Economic and Advisory Council and the Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council.

He said his organization, Kenrich Global Consult Ltd, was willing to partner and ensure that the forthcoming World Investment Summit becomes a huge success that will open the door for investors to commit their resources in the country’s economic environment.
