Kaduna State has secured $2.1 billion in foreign investments targeted at strengthening its mining sector, reflecting growing international confidence in the state’s mineral potential. The investments are expected to support exploration, job creation, industrial development, and increased revenue generation, particularly through the commercial extraction of minerals such as lithium, gold, and nickel.

The state government emphasized that improved security, transparent regulations, and investor-friendly policies played a key role in attracting global partners, positioning Kaduna as an emerging mining hub capable of contributing significantly to Nigeria’s economic diversification.
