Twenty-five Chinese investors, led by China Overseas Engineering Group (COVEC), have inspected sites in Katsina State to explore agricultural and renewable energy projects worth $720 million.
Proposed initiatives include rice, maize, cassava, fisheries, a 10,000-head cattle ranch, and solar power, highlighting Katsina’s growing appeal to foreign investors.
The Executive Secretary of the Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission (NIPC), Ms A’isha Rimi, disclosed this on Monday in Katsina, shortly after the inspection.
