Africa-Press – Lesotho. <\/strong><\/span>President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has told world leaders gathered at the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York, United States, to invest in minerals in Nigeria and Africa to diversify supply to the international market.<\/p>\n

Tinubu disclosed this in his remarks on Wednesday at the 80th Session of the UNGA in New York, US.<\/p>\n

He said investment in the African continent will bring down tension between major economies and help shape the architecture for peace and prosperity.<\/p>\n

According to countries producing minerals, they need to benefit in terms of investment, partnerships, jobs and local processing.<\/p>\n

He stressed that the export of raw materials from the continent has created tension, inequality and instability.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfrica, I must include Nigeria, has in abundance the critical minerals that will drive the technologies of the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cInvestment in exploration, development and processing of these minerals in Africa will diversify supply to the international market, reduce tensions between major economies and help shape the architecture for peace and prosperity.\u201d<\/p>\n
