NIGERIAN INVESTORS POURED OVER $103 MILLION INTO GHANA’S ECONOMY IN FIRST NINE MONTHS OF 2025
New data from the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC) reveals that Nigerian investors legally injected a total of US$103.61 million into the Ghanaian economy between January and September 2025.
The investment inflow was driven by a dramatic surge in capital during the second quarter of the year. While only three projects worth US$0.60 million were registered from January to March, the period from April to June saw five Nigerian-backed projects valued at US$102.01 million.
This single-quarter performance made Nigeria the top source country for investment value in Ghana for that period, ahead of China and the United Arab Emirates. One further project worth US$1.00 million was recorded in the third quarter.
The GIPC data indicates a significant shift in the nature of Nigerian investment in Ghana. The substantial capital injection suggests a move beyond traditional trade and retail activities into larger-scale, capital-intensive projects. Analysts view this trend as a sign of growing Nigerian investor confidence in Ghana’s economic landscape, positioning Nigeria as a major source of regional foreign direct investment.
The figures underscore the deepening economic ties and investment flow between the two West African nations.
