The Chairman of the Rivers/Bayelsa State branch of MAN, Vincent Okuku, conveyed this sentiment during a meeting with Governor Fubara at Government House, Port Harcourt.

The meeting aimed to discuss and align efforts towards industrializing the state and re-establishing it as a prominent manufacturing hub in Nigeria.

According to Okuku, the investment policy’s content provides assurance of reinforcing a conducive environment for investments.

Okuku countered the notion, held in some quarters, that oil and gas were the only thriving industries in the state.

He emphasized that Rivers State is home to over 70 industries actively engaged in the real-time production of goods within a safe operating environment.

He highlighted, “We are manufacturers, not traders. At least, we can say that we have not less than 70 industries in Rivers State operating under a safe environment.

When we did our presentation to the governor, unknown to us, he also had it on his agenda, having the investment forum for Rivers State.”
