US Govt To Encourage American Firms Investing In Nigeria - Entwistle by egift(m): 6:57am On Dec 23, 2015
THE United States Ambassador to Nigeria, James Entwistle, says the U.S government will continue to encourage American companies to invest significantly in Nigeria.

Ambassador Entwistle spoke in Calabar, Cross River State, when he visited General Electric’s planned manufacturing and assembly facility.

The ambassador said he was impressed with GE’s investment commitment with the Calabar facility which would help improve the local and national community.

According to the Ambassador, General Electric has proved, through the project, that foreign direct investment can thrive in Nigeria.

He said that contrary to the impression created in some quarters, Nigeria can be a pleasant place to do business if investors are ready to adapt to the country’s peculiarities.

The President and CEO of GE Nigeria, Dr Lazarus Angbazo, thanked the US Ambassador for the tremendous support of GE investment commitments in Nigeria.

He disclosed that GE remains committed to localising operations in the country through job creation, technology and skills transfer, training and supplier development.

The GE Nigeria CEO said that over 90 percent of GE’s management team in Nigeria was made up of Nigerians.
GE’s investment plans for Nigeria include a $250 million capital expenditure for the manufacturing facility in Calabar that will make Nigeria a regional hub for manufacturing, service and innovation with an improved ability to support a broader range of product lines in power generation as well as oil and gas exploration and production.

The company will also invest significantly over the next five years in local sourcing of goods and services, labour, staff welfare and training.
