Ameenah Gurib-Fakim, the first female president of Mauritius, believes that Nigeria is on the verge of power.
Gurib-Fakim made this statement on Thursday at the Owerri Imo State Economic Summit 2025.  ,
She stated at the event that it is a “power hub in the making” and that the country has some of the richest and most successful entrepreneurs emerging from it, such as Dangote Group’s expansion across Africa.
The former president urged African nations to accept fate and place leadership as a prerequisite for achieving the continent’s potential.
She praised the young people of Nigeria for their talent and drive.
One in five Africans, according to Gurib-Fakim, is Nigeria, and that number will rise as a result because by 2050, one in two adults in the workforce will be African, and by 2100, one in two will be African, Gurib-Fakim said.
Hope is therefore permitted and permitted. And I have no reason to believe that Nigeria, like Africa, is growing, because of it, “the former president told the audience.”

Every Nigerian has benefited from the moves, he claims. He encouraged Nigerian businesspeople to invest abroad and help them attract foreign investors.
