Nigeria needs over $50 billion to address its growing infrastructural deficit, says SEC Director-General Emomotimi Agama. Speaking at a stakeholders’ meeting, Agama emphasized the critical role of the underutilized capital market in raising funds to improve roads, healthcare, education, and more across the country’s 36 states. He highlighted the importance of innovative market initiatives to boost investments and meet the nation’s development goals.
Additionally, international partners like IFC and the Milken Institute stressed the need for education and reforms to make the market more attractive to investors.
