Our strong bonds of friendship provide a firm foundation for more meaningful economic cooperation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNigeria is host to a number of South African companies. South Africa has always been open to Nigerian business, reflected in the number of investments and operations established in this country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut there is much more we need to do.
