The deputy governor and chairman of the Investment Summit, Dr. Manassah Daniel Jatau, who received the group on behalf of the governor, expressed government’s commitment to collaborate and support investors willing to contribute to the economic growth of Gombe state, highlighting Gombe’s commitment to tackling unemployment through industrialization.

He said this vision led to the establishment of the sprawling 1000-Hectare Muhammadu Buhari Industrial Park in Dadin Kowa with all infrastructure provided, and uninterrupted supply of 16 MW of electricity directly from the 40 MW Dadin Kowa Hydropower Plant which is 30km away from the industrial park. 

He added that the industrial park is structured to accommodate heavy, medium, and light industries across various sectors including agribusiness, renewable energy, steel and mining, as well as other pivotal areas within manufacturing and services.

Speaking on the business climate in Gombe state, the deputy governor emphasized the investment-friendly nature of Inuwa Yahaya-led government policies and programmes. He pointed out that the government’s efforts in fostering a business-friendly atmosphere have led to Gombe being ranked No. 1 in Ease of Doing Business in Nigeria for two consecutive years.
