“As far as I’m concerned, I’ve never seen this in the entire country. This is the first time I am seeing this,” he said.
He added that the project, which had been approved to operate as a Free Zone, would attract lots of businesses due to the availability of a stable power supply.
The minister commended the company for its commitment to completing the project and for its decision to expand the access road to the park.
He assured all of the continued support of the FCT Administration to ensure that the road project was completed.
He expressed optimism that the road project, when completed, would accelerate the development of the Idu District.
“From what the Managing Director of the company, Mr Adil Kurt said, the park is going to create not less than 40,000 direct employments and that is huge.
“There is no government that will not support this kind of investment.
“Having gone around, we can attest to the fact that this is really what we need to grow our economy. You can imagine how the whole of Idu will be developed.
“This is what every government craves for, and we must give them the necessary support,” he said.
Wike further commended the Zeberced Group for maintaining a high standard in the delivery of the project.
He particularly commended the company for branding all items being produced at the park, including polypropylene pipes, and sandwich insulation roofing sheets among others, as made in Nigeria.
“For us, it is quality, and we thank God that we have some companies that are committed to making sure that they produce in Nigeria,” Wike said.
The minister assured residents of adequate security and called for further investments in local production.
