Kebbi State Government has attracted five landmark investments valued at over $200 million and N220 billion in renewable energy, electric mobility and agro-industrial development.

Dr Muhammad Kamba, Director-General of the Kebbi State Investment Promotion Agency, disclosed this on Monday, December 29, 2025, in Abuja.

He said the investments include a $120 million, 100-megawatt off-grid solar power project by Fused Vision.

According to Kamba, the project is among the largest off-grid solar initiatives undertaken by a subnational government in Nigeria.

“It is designed to address energy shortages in underserved communities and support manufacturing and agro-processing activities,” he said.

Kamba said Karlot Energy would deploy distributed off-grid solar systems across the state to expand access to clean and reliable power.

“They will leverage Kebbi’s strong solar potential and investor-friendly policies,” he added.

In the transport sector, Kamba said WE CAN Electric Cars had received approval to begin electric vehicle operations statewide.

“This introduces sustainable mobility options for urban and rural routes, aligning with global shifts towards green transportation,” he said.

He said TAWI Research Limited plans to establish an agriculture-focused innovation centre to boost productivity through technology adaptation.

Kamba added that Think-Lab Group is developing the ₦220 billion Kebbi Agro Food Industrial Hub integrating farming, processing, logistics and market access.

“The hub will link smallholder farmers to markets, reduce post-harvest losses and increase incomes.

“These investments reflect Kebbi’s advantages in agriculture, energy infrastructure and facilitation,” Kamba said.

He reaffirmed the state government’s commitment to timely project execution to position Kebbi as a long-term investment destination.
