My policy attracts furniture makers, bakers, hoteliers, bottled water producers, others to Anambra – Obiano


Anambra state governor, Chief Willie Obiano, on Monday, said his administration had through his “Think Home” policy attracted numerous business investors including bottled water producers, furniture makers, hoteliers and others to the state.


Obiano who made the assertion in a statement from the Commissioner for Information and Public Enlightenment, C. Don Adinuba, said since last two years all the ministries, departments and agencies (MDAs) were daily inundated by an increasing number of organisations and individuals throughout Nigeria and beyond that want to invest in Anambra.
“Most of them may not be well known names or brands and, therefore, do not often attract media headlines, but they certainly mean business. Some are establishing branches of their businesses here and some are shutting down their businesses elsewhere to establish them.
“They range from furniture makers to producers of bottled water to modern supermarket owners to hoteliers, to restaurateurs to bakers to micro-finance promoters to sophisticated furniture makers to manufacturers of toiletries like liquid soaps and producers of building materials,” he added.


Obiano said, “The new huge investment drive has seen land in particular appreciate in most places in the state, citing the example of Ihiala where a plot of land measuring 100 by 50 metres has in the last two years moved from 10 million to N50 million in value. This is impressive by any standard in the world. Labour is cheaper here, though of great quality. Security is excellent.”


He thanked the populace for hearkening to his calls to invest home assuring that his administration would continue to provide enabling environment for business and others to thrive.
