Governor Douye Diri finalized the agreement during his visit to Beijing, accompanied by the Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure, Moses Teibowei. The partnership aims to attract new investments from China while positioning Bayelsa as an emerging hub for industrial development and SME growth.

The project is set for commissioning by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in February 2026. Governor Diri praised CCECC's commitment and welcomed plans for a new fertilizer production plant in Bayelsa, describing the initiative as a catalyst for job creation, agricultural expansion, and sustainable enterprise development. | | | |
