El-Rufai gives Sanusi new appointment in his govt
Governor Nasir El-Rufai has charged the Kaduna Investment Promotion Agency(KADIPA), to redouble its efforts in making Kaduna State the topmost investment destination in Nigeria, by improving its Ease of Doing Business ranking.
Speaking at the formal inauguration of the KADIPA board, Malam El-Rufai formally welcomed His Highness, Muhammadu Sanusi II to the board as Vice-Chairman, and thanked him for accepting to serve the people of Kaduna state.
The governor disclosed that KADIPA has been a very important and successful vehicle in the investment drive of the state, helping since 2015 to attract over$2.1bn in actual and pledged investments.
El Rufai also pointed out that KADIPA will be competing not just with other states in Nigeria for investments but with all emerging markets, adding that the agency should not rest on its oars in its drive to attract businesses to Kaduna state.
