He emphasized that the demolition of these facilities sends the wrong signal to potential investors and could deter FDI.

Atiku also raised questions about the transparency of the demolition process and called for a thorough investigation into the matter. He stressed the importance of adhering to due process and ensuring that investments are protected in order to attract more foreign investors to Nigeria.

The former Vice President urged the government to prioritize the protection of investments and to create policies that promote economic growth and development in the country.
