Caleb Mutfwang, the Plateau State Governor, on Monday, declared that the State is open for business, unveiling investment opportunities in agriculture, tourism, mining and livestock development
The governor stated this during the opening ceremony of Invest Lagos Summit 3.0 in Lagos and monitored on television by BusinessDay in Jos.
Speaking before investors, business leaders and government officials, Governor Mutfwang said his administration is focused on transforming Plateau into a major economic hub by leveraging its comparative advantages in food production, tourism and mineral resources.
The governor said agriculture remains the State’s top priority, stressing that Plateau has the capacity to contribute significantly to Nigeria’s Gross Domestic Product through increased food production, food security and food sovereignty.
“Today, Plateau State feeds Nigeria with what we used to call Irish potatoes, but today we call Plateau potatoes. We feed the whole of West Africa and even our neighbours in Chad and Niger with potato supplies from Plateau State.
