Nasarawa State Governor Abdullahi Sule signed two executive orders and one regulation law on Friday.
The governor performed the function during an emergency meeting of the State Executive Council in Lafia.
Speaking at the event, Sule said that the executive orders are for the adoption of the Framework for Responsible Investment in Land Intensive Agriculture, FRILIA, and the implementation of the Nasarawa Governance Result and Efficiency Mechanism, NGREM.
According to the governor, the regulation law, on the other hand, was for strengthening the Nasarawa State Investment and Development Agency, NASIDA, Law 2020, to improve the framework for public-private partnerships, PPP, in the state.
Sule added that the executive orders and regulations are anchored on improving governance and delivering results for the economic development of the state.
“The adoption of FRILIA is to ensure that land acquisition and resettlement for large-scale agribusiness investments are undertaken in line with established international good practices.
“It will also ensure long-term economic, social, and environmental benefits and guarantee shared benefits between private investors and surrounding communities,” he added.
