President Goodluck Jonathan has arrived London for the Honorary International Investors Council (HIIC) Meeting.

Financing Nigeria’s real sector, attracting more foreign investments as well as Nigeria’s information and communications technology master-plan will dominate discussions at the meeting which opens formally on Thursday.

However, the President will have private meetings and felicitations with top delegates on Wednesday night.

The president is accompanied by some members of his cabinet and state governors while global economic figures are also part of the meeting.

The Honorary International Investors Council (HIIC) is an organization of prominent investors from around the world that advises the Nigerian government on matters pertaining to the country’s economic development including reducing political corruption, making the best of oil production and attracting more investments.

The idea is to see Nigeria lose the identity of crime, violence, poverty, political instability and other vices often associated with the country’s image.

Our correspondent Doris Okenwa will bring you reports of the main events as it unfolds on Thursday.
