Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri of Adamawa State has signed a landmark ₦80 billion investment agreement aimed at transforming the state’s power and transportation sectors.
The deal, sealed through separate Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) with two private firms, is designed to push Adamawa towards clean energy and modern mobility.
Under the agreement, A4&T Power Solutions Limited will invest more than ₦80 billion over the next five years to generate 15 megawatts of electricity through mini-grids, hybrid systems, and solar facilities. This is expected to improve power supply across the state, especially in underserved communities.
In the transport sector, Sparrow Mobility Limited is set to introduce 10,000 electric motorcycles and bicycles within two years. The company also plans to set up local assembly plants and charging stations, creating jobs and encouraging eco-friendly mobility.
Speaking during the signing ceremony in Yola, the Commissioner for Works and Energy Development, Adamu Atiku Abubakar, said the agreements mark a new chapter for Adamawa’s growth.
“This partnership will move Adamawa State towards clean energy, reduce carbon emissions, and promote eco-friendly transportation,” he stated.
Governor Fintiri described the initiative as part of his administration’s commitment to modern infrastructure and sustainable development.
The projects are expected to roll out in phases, beginning with urban centres before extending to rural areas.
