President Goodluck Jonathan arrived London Thursday night to attend a meeting with the Honorary International Investors Council, chaired by Baroness Lynda Chalker.

The HIIC which was established in 2004 advises the Federal Government on matters pertaining to Nigeria’s economic development, making the Nigerian economy more competitive globally and attracting greater direct foreign investment to boost domestic industrial growth and job creation.

Deliberations at the HIIC meeting in London will focus on the current investment landscape in Nigeria, developments and opportunities in the ongoing upgrade and expansion of Nigeria’s public infrastructure, as well as opportunities and reforms in Nigeria’s rail transportation, power and construction sectors.

President Jonathan attended same event last year. But he fell ill, triggering controversy of over-drinking.
