President Bola Tinubu has returned to Nigeria after participating in the 2026 Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week (ADSW 2026).
The President’s spokesperson, Mr Bayo Onanuga, disclosed this in a statement issued on Saturday in Abuja.
Tinubu attended the global sustainability summit alongside members of his cabinet. On the sidelines of the event, Nigeria signed a Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) with the United Arab Emirates (UAE), aimed at deepening economic cooperation between both countries.
The agreement is expected to boost bilateral trade and investment, enhance technology transfer, and expand collaboration across key sectors including energy, infrastructure, agriculture, mining and renewable energy.
While addressing participants at the summit, the President announced that Nigeria and the UAE would jointly host INVESTOPIA in Lagos in February. The initiative is designed to attract global investors and accelerate sustainable investment inflows into the country.
Tinubu also disclosed that Nigeria is targeting the mobilisation of up to $30 billion annually in climate and green industrial finance to support energy transition reforms and expand access to electricity nationwide.
