President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has praised the “rapid growth of Nigeria’s capital market”, saying it is a sign of investors’ faith in his administration’s reforms.
The President made these comments on Tuesday in Brasília, Brazil, during a meeting with Dr Emomotimi Agama, the Director-General of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and the Board of Directors of the Nigerian Exchange Group Plc (NGX).
Tinubu noted that since he took office, market capitalisation and trading activity have expanded significantly, creating more opportunities for both local and international investors.

He shared his thoughts in a post on his verified X account on Wednesday.
“Nigeria’s capital market is now one of Africa’s strongest signals of reform, resilience, and opportunity.
“In just over two years, our markets have grown stronger, deeper, and more trusted. They are proof that investor confidence is back and that our reforms are working.
“In Brazil today, I hosted the leadership of the NGX Group, our Securities & Exchange Commission, and capital market operators. I assured them of our clear commitment: Nigeria will remain Africa’s premier investment destination, with rules that protect investors and reforms that unlock growth.
“We will continue unlocking capital, protecting investors, and driving innovation so that our economy works for every Nigerian and every investor,” he wrote.
