New Delhi, March 17 (IANS) With bilateral trade booming and Indian investments seen to double in two years, Nigeria has pushed for direct flights to facilitate business travel between the two countries, the country's foreign minister, H. Odein Ajumogobia, said here. 'Our bilateral trade was over $10 billion in 2010 and total Indian investment in Nigeria is around $5 billion. I would like to see that double in a short time -- two years. It is quite possible if we focus on specific areas,' Ajumogobia told IANS in an interview. He said power, oil and gas, financial services and agriculture were four critical areas in which Indian companies could play a significant role in capacity building in Nigeria, among the fastest-expanding economies in Africa with a 7-percent average growth.
