In his words: “The Nigerian authorities have developed an effective and efficient funding mechanism to compliment the other sources of funds through Diaspora Bond as an alternative framework of sourcing additional financial support; in order to fill the financial gaps created as a result of high demand and competition by many governments and of further attracting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). jamb results

“Therefore, Nigerians in Diaspora should take advantage of this investment opportunity which will catalyze the development of the country. Diasporas play a critical role in supporting sustainable development by transferring resources, knowledge, and ideas back home, and in integrating their countries of origin into the global economy.

“Nigerians in the Diaspora have a significant role to play in the development of Nigeria, now and for years to come. We believe that Nigerians in Diaspora constitute an important constituency that contribute their wealth of experience, exposure, vast human network, among others to the socio-economic development of the country.”
