 Ladies and gentlemen, it's a real pleasure to join you all at this webinar of the Franco-Nigerian Chamber of Commerce and Industry. And I think some exciting things are about to happen between France and Nigeria. This will be, as Ambassador Pascal said, this will be my second interaction within two weeks or so with Frank's business interests in Nigeria. I had earlier met with the Africa Commission of the movement, the enterprise de France, MEDEF International. And my friend is actually improving every day now with all these interactions with the French to discuss French investments in Nigeria. And I'm pleased to continue these engagements with you all today. As countries around the world struggle to rebuild economies, it's very evident that we cannot do this without collaboration. And meaningful collaboration is really quite critical here, collaboration between countries and between sectors has become more important than ever. And as one of France's leading partners in sub-Saharan Africa, we are committed to keeping that relationship going. And organizations such as yours, the Franco-Nigerian Chamber of Commerce, are in my own opinion a clear demonstration of this collaboration and of the seriousness with which both Nigeria and France and the commercial and business interests in both countries take the relationship. And I think that this is particularly exciting because it is also coming at a time when we are trying to struggle with all sorts of hard decisions that have to be made. And also we're looking forward to so many different, we're looking forward to the fruition of so many different plans and so many different projects and programs that we have. For us, a key priority remains the provision of jobs for a large number of very young people, 70% of Nigerian population, in effect providing jobs for the Nigerian population. And we have been determined to work on ways to continue to create real opportunities for young Nigerians, bridging existing skill gaps, equipping them with resources that they need to contribute positively to our national development. So we're really eager to work with member organizations of this Chamber of Commerce as we implement future programs, future job programs, future economic programs. We've also alongside partner forums such as this, we work closely with wholly indigenous private companies because we recognize that the private sector is the real engine of growth. So we do quite a bit of work already and we engage a different forum with many companies including many French companies and some have attended some of our events, some of the events that we've organized with the private sector. But our vision is a significant improvement in the Nigerian business environment just to increase cross-border trading and productivity across the economic sectors. So we're working hard to establish a business environment that we hope will be supportive of both domestic and foreign investors. Despite the economic slowdown and of course we're all aware of what the GDP figures are this quarter. But I think it's important to recognize that the pandemic which really is the cause of the sharp downturn not just in the Nigerian economy but in practically all of our economies all over the world except perhaps China. But it also provides incredible opportunities for doing all manner of very innovative very creative things and I think that we are in a season where we're ready to experiment and we're ready to do a lot more. And if you look at our economic sustainability plan which was our response to the pandemic what we try to do was to do a few things that we thought would be game-changing. One of those for example and there are quite a few things I'm not going to bore you with all the details of ASP which I'm sure you're already familiar with. One of the important things that we try to do was with respect to renewable energy where we and what we try to do there is solar power, solar power interventions. There we're collaborating with several solar power companies to provide within the next 12 months 5 million Nigerian households with solar home systems. Now this is partly to address the issues with the national grid by you know providing more of with capacity but also you know to provide real opportunities in this in the renewable energy space and I think that this might be of interest to business to French business people also. What we're doing is that we're getting financing through the central bank as part of the economic sustainability plan. I'm sure you're aware that we have a 2.3 trillion the funding is about 2.3 trillion but the substantial part of that funding is coming in the form of loans to the private sector especially those that are involved in the assembly of solar power equipment installation of solar power equipment and even retailing solar power equipment and the whole idea is to resource them so that they can provide these services to the 5 million initial target the 5 million homes which is an initial target and then we hope that of course that will create several opportunities around it. They even the even the payment systems that would have to be worked out around the solar home systems to provide some opportunities installation servicing maintenance etc. So this is a very important part of the work that we're trying to do. We have the collaboration of the World Bank on this as well and we think that this is a project that will redefine in many ways the power sector especially the provision of power in homes domestic provision of power. We think that that might be this might be something that would really make a huge huge difference. We're really open to whatever you know what other you know ideas suggestions and all of that that are possible. I'm sure that today we'll have conversations also around what's going on in the hydrocarbon industry where you know we have to tell that's doing some really excellent work there and all that. And we're also quite happy to announce and I'm sure my friend Ambassador Pascal will be happy about the Air France and all of that developments around that. I think all of that has been quite good news and we're all you know happy that Air France is able to go back and forth from Nigeria again. So again just to thank you very much for this opportunity and to look forward of possible discussions that will follow and to say how you know quickly and currently we are about the interest that the Franco-Nigerian Chamber of Commerce continues to generate in the Nigerian economy and Nigerian business. We hope that this will be this union or this collaboration will be stronger and stronger. Thank you again. Thank you very much and look forward to the conversations. Thank you.
