Osogbo – 17/08/2025 – The Osun State Government has launched the Osun State Investment Portal, invest.osunstate.gov.ng, as part of His Excellency Asiwaju (Dr.) Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke’s drive to improve the ease of doing business in the state and attract both local and foreign investment.
The portal was created and delivered under the Office of the Special Adviser on Innovation, Science, Technology, and Digital Economy.
It is designed as a one-stop digital gateway for investors, offering detailed information on investment opportunities, sector profiles, available incentives, and step-by-step guidance for setting up businesses in Osun State.
It also supports the Governor’s ease-of-doing-business policies, including the Certificate of Occupancy in 45 Days (CofoIn45Days) programme and the Harmonized Bill. Both initiatives are aimed at reducing bureaucracy, increasing transparency, and ensuring Osun stands out as one of the most investor-friendly states in Nigeria.
Governor Adeleke, while speaking at the launch, said, “My administration is institutionalizing ease of doing business in Osun. The Investment Portal gives every investor a single, trusted entry point with clear guidance, firm timelines, and direct government support. Backed by our CofoIn45Days programme and the Harmonized Bill, we are cutting red tape, lowering costs, and making approvals transparent and trackable. We welcome investors to a state where processes are predictable, rights are protected, and growth is shared.”
The Investment Portal is powered by the Osun State Investment Promotion Agency (OSIPA) in collaboration with the Office of the Special Adviser on Innovation, Science, Technology, and Digital Economy. It features:
i. Sector-Based Investment Guides – covering Agriculture, Mining, Tourism, Manufacturing, ICT, Trade, and more.
ii. Investor Support Services – including land acquisition facilitation, tax incentives, permits, and licensing assistance.
iii. User-Friendly Interface – making it easy for investors to connect with opportunities and resources.
Through this platform, the Osun State Government is showcasing the state’s strategic location, strong infrastructure, abundant natural resources, skilled labor force, and favorable policies for business development.
Officials noted that the portal will serve as a digital entry point for investors in agriculture investment, real estate, tourism, manufacturing, and ICT, while also highlighting opportunities for trade and industry expansion.
With the launch of this initiative, Osun State is positioning itself as a major hub for trade, commerce, and innovation within Nigeria and the West African region.
