“From my first day in office, we decided that we have to renovate and rehabilitate some of the township roads within our state. This is the first phase of the state-wide operation to ensure that we have motorable roads throughout #Ekiti State.”

— H.E @BiodunAOyebanji

Granted "free zone" status by the Federal Government, the Zone offers #incentives such as free #repatriation of capital, #profits, and #dividends for foreign #investors, rent-free land during construction, tax holidays, waivers on import/export duties, and expatriate quotas.

[Government of Ekiti State @ekitistategov]

The Bank’s financing will leverage other development partners’ programs and bolster the development of world-class #infrastructure, including a 20-hectare green technology park and services infrastructure like roads, electricity, water supply, and wastewater treatment facilities.

[Government of Ekiti State @ekitistategov]

The total project cost is estimated at $94.8 million, with the Ekiti State Government providing $14.8 million in counterpart funding.

EKZ targets more than 19,000 youth & aims to attract #investment commitments from at least 15 firms, generating revenues of about $10.8 million.

[Government of Ekiti State @ekitistategov]

The Ekiti Knowledge Zone’s #incubator program will support #startups with pre-seed and seed funding and provide skills-enhancement training in #ICT for youth in Ekiti and neighbouring states.

[Government of Ekiti State @ekitistategov]

The project will attract technology firms & investors, establishing an SPV to pool #financing & manage Zone operations. EKZ aims to draw tech start-ups, business process outsourcing firms, fabrication & production companies, research institutes & corporate back-office operations.

EKZ, a federally supported and state-driven Special Economic Zone, offers fiscal incentives to draw private sector #investment into #digital #technology and the #knowledge economy value chains.

[Government of Ekiti State @ekitistategov]

Initiated by former Governor @kfayemi, the EKZ project seeks to transform Ekiti into a knowledge-based economy. Under the leadership of Governor @biodunaoyebanji, the project is being expanded to position Ekiti as a hub for attracting and integrating ideas, talents & innovations.

[Government of Ekiti State @ekitistategov]

BREAKING: The African Development Bank Group @AfDB_Group has approved an $80 million to fund the Ekiti Knowledge Zone (EKZ) project.

EKZ aims to foster digital innovation & entrepreneurship, create 26,000 jobs, and contribute about $14 million annually in net economic benefits.

[Kayode Fayemi @kfayemi]

The two game-changing projects, alongside the Ekiti International Agro Cargo Airport, the Ekiti Knowledge Zone, and the Ekiti Agric Processing Zone, form critical components of the state's 30-year Development Plan, which Governor Oyebanji @biodunaoyebanji has continued to seamlessly implement. This is a significant benefit for the people of Ekiti from a governor who passionately believes in a continuity agenda for #development.

Transformative development takes time, and in the end, it is always worthwhile and fruitful.
