Former aide to the president, Reno Omokri, posted a video featuring his dialogue with a Moroccan entrepreneur who wishes to move to Nigeria for improved business prospects.
The conversation occurred outside Morocco’s Mohammed V Airport and quickly spread across social platforms, eliciting varied responses from Nigerians.
During the talk, the businessman remarked, “I noted that the police have been completely overhauled, yet I am seeking a better life and intend to pursue business in Nigeria, God willing.”
When Omokri inquired whether he genuinely intended to relocate to Nigeria, he answered, “Why not? I will be alongside our fellow Africans.”
Omokri Highlights Nigeria’s Economic Growth
In the discussion, Omokri emphasized Nigeria’s expanding economic outlook, citing the nation’s robust manufacturing base and the influence of the Dangote Refinery.
He stated, “Nigeria boasts Africa’s second‑largest manufacturing sector, valued at $55 billion—only Egypt surpasses it. Consequently, conducting business in Nigeria is promising; bring your capital, invest here, and you will appreciate the experience.”
Omokri also commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s economic reforms, asserting that the nation’s economy has grown markedly over the last two years and urging the entrepreneur to consider investing in Nigeria.
