The ECOWAS Bank for Investment and Development (EBID) and the Government of Bauchi State, Federal Republic of Nigeria, have signed a financing agreement to support the implementation of the Bauchi State Transport Infrastructure Financing Programme. The agreement was signed at EBID Headquarters in Lom\u00e9, Republic of Togo, by Dr. George Agyekum Donkor, President and Chairman of the Board of Directors of EBID, and His Excellency Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed, CON, Executive Governor of Bauchi State.<\/p>\n

Under the agreement, EBID will provide financing of US$91.63 million for the construction and completion of 24 strategic road and bridge projects across Bauchi State. The programme will improve connectivity between urban and rural communities, facilitate access to markets and essential services, reduce transport costs, and strengthen agricultural and commercial value chains. Aligned with the Bauchi State Development Plan and Nigeria’s broader development priorities, the project is expected to create approximately 5,000 jobs during construction and 2,000 permanent jobs upon completion, contributing to inclusive economic growth.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the signing ceremony, Dr George Agyekum Donkor stated that the investment reflected EBID\u2019s commitment to financing transformative infrastructure projects that create jobs, stimulate investment, and improve living conditions. He noted that by strengthening transport connectivity across Bauchi State, the Programme would reduce logistics costs, improve access to markets, and unlock new opportunities for sustainable economic growth and regional integration.<\/p>\n

His Excellency Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed, CON, Executive Governor of Bauchi State, also underscored the importance of the partnership, describing it as a significant milestone in the State\u2019s vision to build a more competitive and resilient economy. He emphasised that transport infrastructure remains a critical driver of investment, private sector growth, and improved living standards, and expressed appreciation for EBID\u2019s support, which would enable the State to accelerate the implementation of strategic infrastructure projects with substantial economic and social impact.<\/p>\n

Through this collaboration, EBID reaffirms its role as a regional development finance institution and a strategic partner to its Member States in delivering high-impact and sustainable infrastructure investments. The intervention is fully aligned with the Bank\u2019s GRO (Growth, Resilience and Optimisation) Strategy, which seeks to promote sustainable growth, strengthen the resilience of West African economies, and maximise the development impact of its financing in support of regional integration and economic transformation.<\/p>\n
