“We know Nigeria well and have deep affection for its people. Personally I love the entrepreneurial spirit evident everywhere. The Niger Delta in particular is an area of enormous potential for investors looking for strong, well prepared projects.

“We are happy to be part of the team supporting the excellent leadership of the Niger Delta Development Commission. The PPP Summit tomorrow is a chance to kickstart the investment process and prove what is possible.

“We look forward to continuing these discussions in London, New York, Toronto and Dubai and bringing prosperity to the people of the Niger Delta who deserve the infrastructure and facilities that a well thought out PPP can bring.”
