Kogi Governor Ododo Commissions Confluence Lube Factory

Kogi State Governor Alhaji Usman Ododo commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his economic reforms aimed at fostering industrialization and private-sector investment. During the commissioning of the Confluence Lube factory, located along the Ganaja-Ajaokuta expressway, Ododo described the investment by Godec Power Nigeria Limited as a vital contribution to the state's industrialization, job creation, and economic prosperity.

He noted that the establishment of the facility reflects growing confidence in Kogi's economic potential. Ododo stated that Kogi could achieve its full economic potential only when investors committed resources to productive ventures that create jobs and add value to the local economy.

He praised Chief Okechukwu Obika, the Managing Director and Chairman of Godec Power Nigeria Limited, for creating employment opportunities through the factory, which produces engine oil and plastic containers. Ododo announced a three-year waiver on selected state annual levies to encourage business growth, covering land use charge, environmental levy, business premises annual renewal, fire service levy, and economic development levy.
