Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State is advancing an all-inclusive drive for sustainable power and economic growth for the State, having led a high-level engagement at the Kaduna Electric Franchise Energy Summit in London.
In a statement signed by Ahmed Maiyaki, Commissioner for Information, described the Summit as a key step in the Governor’s broader agenda of industrialisation, investment attraction, and shared prosperity, with reliable energy positioned as a critical enabler.
“Governor Uba Sani’s participation reflects Kaduna State’s commitment to strategic partnerships and regional collaboration to expand energy access and accelerate development,” the Commissioner said.
At the Summit, the governor joined his Zamfara and Kebbi counterparts to promote regional cooperation, while engaging investors and stakeholders on scalable energy solutions.
A major highlight was the signing of an MoU with ASI Engineering Limited to drive power sector reform and infrastructure expansion.
Kaduna State will invest N15 billion for a 5.54% equity stake in the company, translating to an indirect 4.13% stake in Kaduna Electric.
“This investment is a deliberate step to secure Kaduna’s energy future, power industrial growth and improve livelihoods”, the statement noted.
