Nigeria is set to make history as plans have been concluded for the foundation laying ceremony of the $1.2 billion world largest gas-to-urea fertilizer plant project.
The promoters of the fertilizer plant, Indorama Eleme Petrochemical Plant, said the launch of the plant is expected to kick-start an agricultural revolution in the country.
It would be recalled that President Goodluck Jonathan had promised to support the project because of the huge impact it would have on the country’s agricultural sector and the creation of employment opportunities for Nigerians, when he was informed about it in 2011.
Indorama’s Managing Director, Manish Mundra, was quoted in the company’s in-house journal, IMPACT, made available to Vanguard, as saying that a date is being expected for this all-important ground-breaking ceremony.
