Kogi State Governor, Ahmed Usman Ododo, has led Chinese and international partners to unveil the Ajaokuta Economic City, a new Free Trade Zone (FTZ) projected to attract $500 million in annual foreign direct investment and create 50,000 jobs.
Speaking at the stakeholders’ engagement held at the Transcorp Hilton in Abuja, Governor Ododo said the project marks a new chapter in Kogi’s industrial growth.
He thanked President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for granting timely approval and supporting the initiative.
The Governor assured investors of a strong security framework for the FTZ and emphasized the role of higher institutions in the state in providing the required skilled manpower.
“Today, we plant the seed of generational prosperity. Kogi State is the beating heart of Nigeria. We don’t talk. We do,” he said.
