(CSAAE), Dr. Godswill Agbagwa was at this program, discussing Nigeria’s bilateral relations amidst other economic concerns.
In reply to the moderator’s questions, Dr Godswill Agbagwa, identified fear of the security threats posed by kidnapping, Boko Haram, herdsmen clash, etc. as the reason behind foreigners’ hesitance towards doing business in Nigeria.
