In a statement on Wednesday in Abuja, Ngelale said that the team included Gov. Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State and Dr Lazarus Angbazo, Managing Director/CEO of the Infrastructure Corporation of Nigeria (InfraCorp). 'We began with a tour of their facilities, which provided a window into the company's history, present, and future development plans. 'We were given a no-photographs-allowed tour of the automated production lines, which were an inspiring marvel to behold. 'After the tour, our team interfaced with CATL's Executive Management and apprised them of our zone's progress with a detailed view into what our col laboration would entail,' he said. Ngelale said the management of CATL made a presentation of how their technologies and associated financing platforms could be tailored to the unique requirements of Evergreen City. He said that Sule detailed local policy and how the partnership would be supported at the sub-national level, 'While I communicated the vision of the zone in the context of the specific technologies being produced by CATL. 'InfraCorp MD, Dr Lazarus Angbazo asked pertinent questions about their proposed concepts of collaboration. We all agreed on finite next steps. 'We are thrilled about the opportunity to site the EV Battery Manufacturer supplying Tesla, BMW, and others within our Lithium-rich zone.
