The Katsina state government has offered the Nigeria Export Processing Zones Authority (NEPZA) over 270 hectares of land to set up a textile and garments park in Funtua. NEPZA managing director Adesoji Adesugba said the Federal Executive Council recently approved N2 billion for projects in the park, out of which about N500 million has been spent on the site.
Alhaji Ibrahim Tukur, director general of Katsina state’s investment promotion agency, handed over the certificate of occupancy of the proposed site of the park to Adesugba in Abuja.
The project, projected to generate 10,000 direct jobs and 60,000 indirect ones, will be completed in the next 18 months, according to Nigerian media reports.
