Nasarawa State has become Nigeria's center for lithium operations with $850 million in active investments, according to Mohammed Sani Haruna, former executive vice chairman of the National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure. The professor credited Governor Abdullahi Sule for attracting companies such as Ganfeng Lithium, Avatar New Energy Materials, Can Max Technologies and Jiu Ling Lithium Mining to build processing facilities across the region.

Haruna spoke on Saturday at the Nigerian Society of Engineers annual gathering in Lafia. He said the state government will collect $15 million over 10 years from Ganfeng Mining, while local communities will receive development funds. More than 100 residents are training in China to operate refineries that will create jobs and technical expertise at home.

The transformation has brought roads, electricity and water systems to mining areas like Endo and Gudi. Haruna called the shift from raw exports to processed materials the biggest industrial advance in state history. He urged engineers to support technical leadership beyond 2027 to maintain momentum in battery materials production and aerospace applications.
