The Governor of Nasarawa State, Engr. Abdullahi A. Sule, recently welcomed a high-level delegation from Nizhong Mining Company, led by Chairman Mr. He-Ruchui, at the Government House in Lafia.
The company has proposed a $50 million investment in tin mining and mineral processing in the Agwada community, Kokona Local Government Area. This investment is expected to boost the state’s economy, create job opportunities, and support global mineral supply chains.

In a statement on Tuesday, the Nasarawa State Government said, “This significant investment is expected to boost the state’s economy, create jobs, and contribute to the global supply of critical minerals. The Governor’s commitment to attracting foreign direct investment and promoting economic diversification has yielded this strategic partnership, which will unlock the vast mineral potential of the state and indeed Nigeria.”
