A report released by the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre (GIPC) has revealed that Nigerian investors injected US$103.61 million into Ghana’s economy in the first three quarters of 2025.
The year began steadily, with three projects registered between January and March. This early activity was enough to place Nigeria among Ghana’s leading investors, just behind China.
From April to June, Nigerian investors rolled out five major projects valued at an estimated US$102 million.
The report noted that Nigeria surged to the top of Ghana’s investment rankings, overtaking both China and the United Arab Emirates.
By mid-year, the pace slowed, with only one additional project recorded between July and September, valued at US$1 million.
Despite the slowdown, total inflows for the nine-month period remained impressive, reinforcing Nigeria’s position as a major player in Ghana’s investment landscape.

GIPC data further indicated that Nigerian participation in Ghana’s economy is increasingly shifting beyond trade and retail into higher-value, boardroom-level investments backed by substantial capital.
Nigerian businesses are no longer limiting themselves to small-scale ventures. Instead, they are moving into large-scale projects that require strategic decision-making and significant financial commitments.
