Nigeria is expanding global alliances beyond traditional partners, with Niger State, rich in agricultural land and hydro-energy, leading the charge in international cooperation. The state governor Mohammed Umaru Bago’s recent visit to Russia was a high-level mission focused on attracting investment and technology to boost state development.
The visit featured meetings with Russian companies in agriculture, health, education, mining, and energy. His mission reflects a growing trend in Nigeria: empowering state leaders to seek foreign investment and expertise that align with local priorities, especially in skills development, and infrastructure.
In an exclusive interview with Global South Pole, Governor Bago said the state had identified concrete opportunities for collaboration, particularly in sectors that create jobs and build technical capacity.
“We have seen opportunities here in Russia where we will have joint ventures with companies so we can be able to explore in commercial-size mining, agriculture, health and other fields that are very attractive and […] for our people. It’s going to create employment. So we've seen opportunity for employment, opportunity for development and opportunity for skills,” the governor expressed.
