Article: Two Nigerian projects make top global infrastructure list

I read this particular article in regards to the 5th Annual Global Infrastructure Leadership Forum, scheduled to be held in London, United Kingdom, between February 22 and 24, this year. The projects are expected to contribute to job creation and opportunity creation for the winner of that country's particular state or province. Projects span all infrastructure sectors, including Electricity generation, transmission and distribution; oil & gas, digital infrastructure, “new energy”, water/ waste-water, ports & logistics, urban mass transit, and airports. Each sector offers a series of cross-cutting – finance, equipment, technology, engineering & construction, public policy, services – opportunities for high-level executives.
the program would showcase countries with the most innovative and competitive infrastructure projects. 

Mr. Daniel Omonze, who is also the Country's Coordinator of the 5th Annual Global Infrastructure Leadership in Nigeria, was visibly excited that his country's Mambila Hydroelectric Power project which was listed among the top 100 Global Infrastructure Projects.

This article shows that despite the economic and modernization setbacks over the years Nigeria is making strides to undergo massive infrastructure changes to become more self sufficient and creating jobs and opportunities that at one time was unforeseeable.  The 21st Century is proving to be a promising time for African Citizens. Just think if the infrastructure is safely set into motion how many people will invest in the country which will bring more revenue and more people migrating to invest and bring Africa back to its former glory in a new modernized version.   I have included the link below to the actual article I hope you enjoy it as much as I have. Positive stories can bring about positive results
