 Nigeria needs $1.5 trillion over a 10-year period to build national infrastructure, and that's according to President Mohammad Bawari, who gave the figure at the COP26 high-level side event. The global infrastructure meeting was hosted by the United States President Joe Biden, the EU Commissioner of President von der Leyen, and UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson. President Bawari declared that the Nigerian government has established a clear legal and regulatory framework for private financing of infrastructure.
