President of Association of Consulting Engineers of Nigeria (ACEN), Ajibade Oke, has said Nigeria needs about $11 trillion to reach its full potential in infrastructure.

Speaking, yesterday, at the opening of the 28th Annual FIDIC Africa Infrastructure Conference, themed, ‘Infrastructure Development in Africa’, Oke said the increasing population in Africa places burden on countries, including Nigeria, necessitating continued investment in socio-economic infrastructure.

Oke, who said hosting of the conference in Nigeria for the third time was significant in the light of global recovery from COVID-19, said infrastructure development is strategic to efforts at reflating the national economy. They harped the need for government to take advantage of public-private partnership financing, saying private sector funding will accelerate delivery of long-term infrastructure, bolster availability of services to people and create more jobs.
