The Minister of Aviation, Hadi Sirika, has said that Nigeria and Qatar need to review their Visa policy noting that the restrictions on both sides were making it difficult to connect the two countries as expected.
Sirika said the rate of returns on investments in Nigeria is 34 per cent and the highest in the world with a population of over 200 million people which should not be ignored.
The minister disclosed this during a courtesy visit of the Charge d’Affaires of Qatar, Ahmed Mohammed Y.E Al-Hor to the ministry in Abuja.
In a statement issued by the Head, Press and Public Affairs Ministry of Aviation, Mr. Odutayo Oluseyi, Sirika revealed that Nigeria and Qatar should maintain a sustainable relationship, adding that “Nigeria is yearning for investments and is also committed to its policy of ease of doing business for investors.
“The rate of returns on investments in Nigeria is 34 per cent and the highest in the world with a population of over 200 million people and Qatar is rich in oil and gas with other areas of investments just as Nigeria equally has infrastructures required for a smooth business operation.
“Therefore, both countries need to improve their visa policy and the restrictions on both sides are making it difficult to connect the two countries as expected,” Sirika said.
