The Nigerians in Diaspora Organisation, Europe (NIDOE), Italy chapter has said it is planning to build a multi-million dollar ‘Diaspora Village’ in Nigeria as part of efforts to encourage Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) into the country. Chairman of the chapter, George Omo-Iduhon, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) yesterday the body would not slack in its responsibilities of attracting foreign investments into Nigeria to build the economy. He said: “We are proposing to build a multi-million dollar Diaspora Village in Nigeria, to be located in Lagos. “We want to do more for our country, so we thought it wise to establish a Diaspora Village where we can have land to farm and also have our housing estate. “Our end goal and the necessity for the project are to restore the confidence of Nigerians in Diaspora to come back and build Nigeria’s economy,” he added.
