The conference, with the themed “Invest Nigeria, Thrive Abroad,” is expected to bring together government officials, business leaders, investors and members of the Nigerian diaspora to deepen investment ties between Nigeria and Canada while promoting sustainable economic partnerships.
The Nigerian Government delegation includes the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Bianca Odumegwu-Ojukwu; the Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, Dr. Jumoke Oduwole; and the Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo.
