will manufacture rods and steel of all sizes,
Governor of Anambra State, Charles Soludo has provided insight into what it means and his objective on commissioning the “the first steel facility in the south-east of Nigeria.”
The Governor shared the details in a post on the development.
He wrote…
Today (Saturday, June 10, 202), I commissioned Milton Steel Manufacturing Company founded by Hon. Innocent Ojike (Ojicam), who is also the company’s majority shareholder.
The company, which is the first steel facility in the south-east of Nigeria, is located in Awkuzu, Oyi LGA. It will manufacture rods and steel of all sizes, one of the basic resource required for full industrialization.
My administration’s objective is to transition from a primarily informal commercial sector to one that is industrialized, a technology hub, and a spot for leisure and entertainment.
As a government, we stand ready to provide every assistance. We have signed an agreement with EEDC to provide the state with 24-hour electricity. We will put in necessary infrastructure to make this happen now that power is on the concurrent list.
My primary responsibility as a Governor is to serve as the chief marketing officer for everything produced in Anambra. The best way to create jobs is to buy items made in the state. When you buy products made in the diaspora, you are creating jobs in other countries.
I am here to celebrate three things; the company, industry, and the homeland consciousness of the Founder. This is another reminder to Ndi Anambra in Diaspora and, indeed the world, that Anambra is ready for business.
Come invest in Anambra!
CC. Soludo, CFR.
