Top Pan Nigeria Ltd., is therefore, a big leap in the right direction\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The governor, who had earlier on inspected the company\u2019s production lines, was delighted that it has employed majority of its personnel from Kano, enjoining the workers to maintain their dedication so as to keep the company afloat.<\/p>\n<p>In his remarks, the Co-chair of the Group, Alhaji Ahmadu Haruna Zago, disclosed that the company was established to provide high quality packaging solutions for the groups\u2019 and other industries\u2019 needs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRight now, all our raw materials are obtained from Lagos and as you can see, almost all of our staff are youths from Kano. Our target is to create jobs, through our companies, for at least 50, 000 people\u201d, he emphasized.<\/p>\n<p>Zago, who thanked the government for encouraging the Lee Group, through several interventions, however, urged the Ganduje administration to put more effort towards addressing the challenge of water supply facing some companies belonging to his group.<\/p>\n<p>On his part, the Managing Director, Top Pan Nigeria Ltd., Mr. Ahmed Kodami, promised to ensure high quality products for the local market as well as good corporate citizenship.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
