President’s economic reforms developing Nasarawa - Sule

Nasarawa State Governor Abdullahi Sule has applauded President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s economic reforms, which he said have been instrumental to the development of the state.

Addressing reporters in Lafia, the state capital, Sule said the reforms have laid a solid foundation for economic growth in Nasarawa and across the country.

“Without the reforms of Mr. President, most of the development we are seeing today, especially here in Nasarawa State, would not have happened.

“The reforms have created the economic boom we are witnessing. That is the reason we have been able to achieve what we have achieved.

“We are forever grateful to Mr. President for these reforms, and we are also grateful to the people of Nigeria for accepting them. That is why we are where we are today,” he said.

The governor said the visible outcomes across sectors were clear indications that the reforms were yielding positive results and setting the stage for further development.

Sule said his administration came on board with a clear vision to industrialise the state.

“To industrialise Nasarawa State, you must identify areas of competitive advantage. Industries require raw materials.

“Our first competitive advantage is mining, which is why we are known as the ‘State of Solid Minerals’. The second is agriculture. That is why we have invested heavily in that sector,” he said.
