Lagos State, going by investment destination, emerged as the top destination of capital investment in Nigeria in Q1 2019 with $5,135.49m, making up 87.72% of the total capital inflow in Q1 2020, leaving a wide gap between that Southwestern state and other Nigerian states and the Federal Capital Territory.

In the meantime, accounting for 28.30% of the total capital inflow in Q1 2020 by a bank, Standard Chartered Bank of Nigeria Limited took on all comer to emerge at the top of capital investment in Nigeria in Q1 2020 with $1,656.60m.

There are, however, indications that this feat may not be repeated in the future as Nigerian looks sure to slide into recession for the second time in four years, according to a recent statement by the Minister of Finance.
