Good People, join us at the Nigeria Diaspora Economic Conference (NiDEC) 2026 as I moderate a special Fireside Chat with State Governors featuring H.E. Prof. Chukwuma Charles Soludo, CFR, Governor of Anambra State, and H.E. Dr. Dauda Lawal, Governor of Zamfara State. I spent yesterday with H.E. Dr Lawal, and it is clear that Zamfara is open for business. Anambra is also open for investment and business.
Our conversation will focus on “Engaging and Mobilizing Diaspora Capital at State Level in Nigeria.” Nigeria’s diaspora represents an enormous pool of capital, knowledge, networks, and capabilities. The opportunity before our states is to move beyond remittances and create credible investment structures that can transform diaspora money into productive capital, financing enterprises, infrastructure, innovation, and development across communities. How can our states tap into that pool of multifaceted capital?
Join us on Wednesday, August 12, 2026, from 3:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. for this important conversation. I look forward to exploring with our distinguished governors how Nigerian states can build the trust, institutions, investment vehicles, and market frameworks required to mobilize diaspora capital at scale.
