Ghanashyam made the statement in Lagos at a three-day seminar with the topic:“Enhancing Trade and Investment between India and Nigeria.’’ being attended by 100 Indian companies.
Ghanashyam said: “Let me say that this country, Nigeria, is now in safe hands because what President Buhari is doing would make more investors to come to Nigeria.
“This is, therefore, an hour in Nigeria for everyone to dream of a Nigeria that would be standing on her own.
“And if Nigeria cannot stand on her own, Africa cannot also stand on her own.’’
The event which is attended by 100 Indian companies and led by Naresh Leeka, who informed The Nation that the seminar coincided with the inauguration of the“The India Show, Nigeria’’.
