As we celebrate the Geometric Power Aba, let me remind everyone of something even as catalytic for the economic development of Abia State. Yes, the Enyimba Economic City (EEC), a 9,464 hectare tax and duty free special economic zone in Greater Aba, Abia State, is a vibrant integrated city with growth sectors covering Manufacturing, Logistics, Healthcare, Entertainment, Education, Innovation, Technology hub, Commercial, Lifestyle, Residential, Aviation, and more.
In Nigeria today, there is no comparison, and the world is converging: “Today India and Nigeria do about $11 billion volume of trade and it is fluctuating between $11 to $15 billion. So with this new Economic City, we are targeting towards increasing this trade between the two countries to $20 billion. And we are proud to say that there are more than 76 Indian companies, who have registered their interest, setting up their manufacturing facilities inside Enyimba and these companies are from diverse sectors,” Vishal Jhadav.
24/7 Electricity + Economic City = Opportunities for All.

Comment: Prof, is there a timeframe for activities to take off in this Enyimba city project? Also, is this model after Tinapa?
My Response: Enyimba City is modeled after the Shenzhen City of China. It goes beyond building offices, houses and factories. The key is the human spirit and the culture of the area. We do believe that the Aba spirit of CAN DO will breed the air of Enyimba City because Enyi means pride and pride comes with success.
When people have a spirit of building and making things, projects like Enyimba City will make sense. So, it is not about the buildings, the key is the culture of the people. Abia’s slogan is clear: prosperity through enterprise.
