We’ll Protect Investors, Ease Business Environment Says Nasarawa Governor
Governor Abdullahi Sule says his administration is taking appropriate steps to protect investors.
Governor Sule gave the assurance while performing the groundbreaking for the Multi-Door Court House in Karu on Wednesday.
He said that the government was fully committed to delivering business reforms and creating enabling environment for businesses to flourish even after his tenure.
“Investors are worried that if the person coming next does not think the way this administration thinks, then their investments are in jeopardy. People are worried about that. That is the reason why it is very important to establish the multi door court house. This is the idea about the ease of doing business,” he said.
Sule added that the State House of Assembly is working on a bill to address issues pertaining to land ownership to protect investors.
“Once investors are not protected, they will not come to Nasarawa. Nasarawa has been identified as a place where things can happen. Let’s take advantage of that,” he stated.
The governor said he has so far issued the highest number of certificate of occupancy than any administration in the history of the state.
“When we issue C-of-O we can track who owns what, where is that person coming from, and if we want to take it back, we know where to go,” he stated.
The governor explained that multi door court house in Karu was the second in the state after the one in Lafia.
He signified intention to embark on massive roads rehabilitation in Karu, and the provision of infrastructure along the corridor to the Federal Capital Territory.
Governor Sule directed the Chairman of Karu Local Government to submit designs for a new market in Masaka, and the Maliya Park for immediate award of the contracts.
