Riester
French Minister delegate for Foreign Trade and Economic Attractiveness, Franck Riester, has pledged the French Government’s commitment to supporting Nigeria’s creative industry to create jobs.
Riester stated this when he visited AIM Group, a media conglomerate, as part of his first official visit to Nigeria geared towards fostering an intra-cultural relationship between France and Nigeria.
He said the support, which would be made through its foreign policy in supporting cultural and creative industries in partner countries, would help to establish sustainable assistance for many cultural projects.
He acknowledged the resilient spirit of the new generation of Nigerians, who despite the COVID-19 pandemic, have continued to dominate the music and movie production segment.
