- The Kaduna State Governor, Nasiru el-Rufai, has said that his administration’s resolve to revive the ailing textile industries was irrevocable.
- He said this at the opening of the 27th Annual National Education Conference of National Union of Textile, Garment and Tailoring Workers of Nigeria (NUTGTWN) in Kaduna.
- The three-day conference had as its theme: “Buhari’s Administration: Revival of Textile Industry and Creation of Mass Decent Jobs.” The Governor said it was regrettable that the textile industries which used to employ tens of thousands in the state could now only employ about 1,500 employees. ‘’This is unfortunate and must be addressed’’, he said.
- Commending the Federal Government’s commitment to revive the textile industries in the country, he assured the textile workers that his government would ensure that the textile industries were fully resuscitated to their former status.
