 Kaduna To Host $450 Million Nigeria–China Poultry Project


Kaduna State is set to host the pilot phase of the landmark Nigeria–China Poultry Project, a transformative agricultural investment valued at over $450 million and projected to create more than 350,000 jobs across the value chain.


Governor Uba Sani announced this on Wednesday during a courtesy visit by the Chinese Ambassador to Nigeria, His Excellency Yu Dunhai, and the leadership of the Nigeria–China Strategic Partnership (NCSP). The meeting focused on strengthening bilateral cooperation in agriculture and investment between Kaduna State and the People’s Republic of China.


Speaking at the event, Governor Sani described the visit as “not merely another diplomatic courtesy, but a defining stride” in Kaduna’s efforts to attract transformative partnerships that reinforce its position as a continental hub for agricultural and industrial excellence.


He expressed gratitude to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, for selecting Kaduna as the pilot state for the project, describing the gesture as a testament to the state’s leadership in Nigeria’s agricultural sector.


“With agriculture contributing 43 percent to our GDP and employing over 60 percent of our citizens, this partnership will accelerate our pursuit of higher productivity, sustainable growth, food security, and broad-based prosperity,” Governor Sani said.


Ambassador Yu Dunhai commended Kaduna’s steady progress and praised the state government’s efforts in creating an enabling environment for global investors. He noted that Kaduna’s stability and forward-looking policies have positioned it as a preferred destination for international development partners.


The Director-General of the NCSP, Mr. Joseph Tegbe, lauded the state’s commitment, particularly the swift approval and allocation of over 7,000 hectares of land for the immediate take-off of the project.


Under President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Infrastructure Fund, the Nigeria–China Poultry Project will be executed through a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) in partnership with the Chinese Government and the Kaduna State Government. Construction is scheduled to commence in December 2025.


The project will span 10,000 hectares, incorporating maize and soybean cultivation to support poultry feedstock production. It is projected to generate 50,000 direct jobs and more than 300,000 indirect employment opportunities across related sectors.


Governor Sani reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to partnerships that promote inclusive economic growth, strengthen food security, and position Kaduna as the agricultural heart of Nigeria.
