Special Climate Envoy of President Bola Tinubu, Ajuri Ngelale, as part of efforts aimed at enhancing Nigeria’s green industrial drive met with the Indian High Commissioner to Nigeria, H.E. Shri Balasubramanian at the State House.
The envoy who disclosed this in a Statement he personally signed said the meeting took place shortly before the Federal Executive Council meeting.
According to him the meeting is an opportunity to discuss in details the new green industrial partnership opportunities with the administration of H.E. Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

He disclosed that he has an agreement with the Indian High Commissioner on actionable next steps in this sphere at a time when the two most populous democracies in Asia and Africa have many shared aspirations for their economies in the present and the future.
Going further, he said he also had an exchange of views after the Federal Executive Council meeting with the Executive Governor of Nasarawa State, Abdullahi Sule, on the establishment of Africa’s first Eco-industrial park, Evergreen City.
