He wrote, “Further to my industrialization agenda, I have dispatched a team to Bangladesh, Vietnam and Turkey respectively on an exploratory visit for the planned ultra-modern garment factory we are opening soon in Abia to compliment the already established Shoe Factory. I am poised as ever to make Aba the fashion capital of Nigeria with automated shoe and garment factories producing in tens of thousands daily. That’s jobs, jobs and more jobs for our people.”
