About one-third of African students studying in the U.S. are Nigerians, an official said on Wednesday. The Cultural Affairs Officer of the U.S. Embassy in Nigeria, Malia Heroux, made this known during an education fair for Nigerian students seeking admission into American universities for undergraduate and graduate studies.



The fair, organised by the EducationUSA Advising Center, is to familiarise Nigerian students with scholarships in U.S. universities.

The event was attended by students from over 20 public and private schools in Abuja.

According to Ms Heroux, about 13,000 Nigerians go to study in the USA yearly. She said about 39,000 African students study in the USA indicating Nigeria makes up about a third.

Also speaking, the Chargé d'Affaires at the U.S. Embassy, Kathleen FitzGibbon, said the embassy assists the students in securing admission in universities in the United State.


She said the embassy helped to secure about $9 million worth of scholarship from colleges and universities last year.

"Individual universities in the USA gives scholarship, it is not us giving out the money as the government. In Abuja last year, the students got scholarship worth of $9 million and that is for Abuja alone," she said.

She said there is a wide variety of programmes being offered in the U.S. and Nigeria universities.

"We also have people who come from the USA to study the Yoruba and Hausa language," she said.

The U.S. Embassy's Education USA Advising Center in Abuja is part of a global network of over 400 educational advising centres in more than 170 countries.

Education USA Abuja also places particular emphasis on supporting talented and determined students who are likely to be awarded full scholarships from U.S. colleges and universities but who lack the financial resources to cover the mission including testing, application fees, and airfare.

South Africa’s Rand Merchant Bank (RMB) has just published the 9th edition of its “Where to invest in Africa” report which ranks the most attractive destinations for investment on the continent in 2020.



While the most attractive economies remain broadly the same as in previous editions, there have been significant changes in positions. Egypt remains the most attractive African country for investment, as in the past three editions, thanks to its large demographic market, the improvement of its business environment and the industrialization policy implemented by the government.

Morocco gained one rank, now being 2nd, and South Africa fell to the 3rd position. The North African country’s average growth is expected to reach 4% in the coming years, while South Africa’s economy is subject to a “cyclical slowdown,” “sluggish growth” and “a deteriorating business environment.”

Kenya, Rwanda, and Ghana respectively hold the 4th, 5th, and 6th position and Côte d'Ivoire moved up three places to become the 7th most attractive African country for investment. This performance is fostered by its increasingly diversified economy, marked by high growth and major infrastructure projects.

The top 10 is closed by Nigeria (8th), Ethiopia (9th) and Tunisia (10th) which finally gets into the top 10.


Here’s a full list of the top 10 countries to invest in Africa in 2020

1. Egypt
2. Morocco
3. South Africa
4. Kenya
5. Rwanda
6. Ghana
7. Côte d'Ivoire
8. Nigeria
9. Ethiopia
10. Tunisia


Methodology
The latest “Where to Invest in Africa” publication focuses on the traditional and alternative sectors driving African countries to reach ever-higher levels of economic growth.

Major indicators for the top ten economies are resources, manufacturing, real estate and construction, ICT, retail, banking and finance.

Economic fundamentals, ease of doing business and the attractiveness of doing business enabled countries in the top 10 positions to score better than other states.
