36 the policy agenda There is no doubting Nigeria’s entrepreneurial spirit. Its economy, despite the country’s problems, has been seeing average annual growth in excess of seven per cent Samir Gadio, emerging markets strategist at Standard Bank, thinks that Nigerian politicians have two options for broadening the country’s economy, and creating more jobs in the longer term, if it is serious about loosening its dependency on the oil and gas sector. “You could argue that Nigeria could be an attractive market for Asian companies, but it is complex. There are substantial electricity [supply] worries. You need to rely on generators, which are very expensive – about 30 per cent of total costs in the Nigerian manufacturing sector.” Routes to growth The second route, says Gadio, is agriculture. “It has been overlooked, which is typical of oil-producing countries. There is a push on the government side to boost the primary agricultural sector. You could argue that Nigeria has a similar climate to that of Ghana, so there is cocoa potential, not to mention other commodities such as coffee, cotton in the north of the country, and rubber,” he says. invest in nigeRia 2012-13 With most people in Nigeria relying on private generators for power, investment in electricity networks is much needed There is no doubting Nigeria’s entrepreneurial spirit. Its economy, despite well-documented problems, has been seeing average annual growth in excess of seven per cent. The international front On the international front, President Jonathan’s stature and reputation has been boosted following support for reform in Libya and Côte d’Ivoire. The European Union has made promises to support Nigeria with expertise and technical help regarding the Boko Haram problems and security worries in the Niger Delta. If Jonathan can continue with his reform agenda, create jobs and draw high-quality private investors to the country – as well as keeping the lights on – then the roots of democracy will dig deeper into the country. Despite all the very considerable challenges, there is much hope. ■ Adrian Holliday is a business and financial writer who contributes to publications including The Observer and The Sunday Times
