Government officials toured a massive sugar factory being built by BUA Foods in Kwara State. The Minister of State for Industry, John Owan Enoh, and the head of the Sugar Development Council, Kamar Bakrin, inspected the Lafiagi facility. BUA's chairman, Abdul Samad Rabiu, is backing the project, which is reportedly eighty percent finished.

The plant aims to process ten thousand tons of sugarcane daily. It is designed to produce a large amount of refined sugar, generate electricity, and make industrial ethanol every year. The group also visited the local Emir, Mohammed Kudu Kawu, where BUA's director Kabiru Rabiu promised this would be Nigeria's biggest integrated sugar operation.

Minister Enoh acknowledged solid progress on the necessary infrastructure during the tour. He stressed the factory must be completed. The council executive secretary noted the unprecedented scale of BUA's investment. The company says construction will now speed up to finish the project.
