We are ready to remove bottlenecks to investments in the economy,\u2019\u2019 the President stated while acknowledging the sweeping changes across the world, largely driven by technology.<\/p>\n<p>He added that the growing rural-urban migration can only be controlled with more investments in digital technology that will directly improve healthcare systems and education for the poor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am happy you are moving from Corporate Social Responsibility to be more incisive and inquisitive with technology so that we can see how we can partner structurally,\u2019\u2019 the President stated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can do a lot for the economy by partnering with us. We believe no one can succeed alone. The structural adjustments we are making are to ensure we face the right direction and arrive at a destination that caters for our people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou and I will make sure that the people have a share of that prosperity. We will, together, build a well-informed society. We have to reassess the journey. I am glad that the stock market is responding positively to the structural adjustments,\u2019\u2019 he stated.<\/p>\n<p>On his part, the MTN Group Chairman, Jonas said the company had a plan of investing $3.5 billion in the economy over the next five years, with a broader vision of becoming a pan-African company by moving investments from the Middle East and focusing more on Africa, especially Nigeria, where it gets the highest return on investment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe message you have given us is that Nigeria is investible, and with your election, we are seeing decisive, prompt and keen interest in structural reforms,\u2019\u2019 the MTN Group Chairman noted.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
