NIGERIAN businessmen have indicated interest in collaborating with Pakistani industrialists in surgical equipment manufacturing, according to Pakistan Head of Chancery, Asim Khan.

Khan told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Friday in Abuja that other areas of the partnership being explored by the businessmen included textile, shoemaking and agricultural equipment and facilities.

“The increasing interaction between Nigerian and Pakistani businessmen will open more areas of investment, create opportunities for joint ventures and further promote cordial relationship,” he said.

He disclosed that application for the business visa from Nigerians visiting Pakistan had increased, assuring that the relationship between the two countries would further improve with the cooperation in the area of military material and training support.

NAN recalls that Pakistan had provided logistic assistance to Nigeria in the fight against terrorism with donations of military aircraft to the West African nation’s military.
