   With just two days to the kick-off of the maiden edition of Alaghodaro Investment Summit, organisers have said the session on manufacturing at the event will crystalise ongoing plans to re-invent Edo State as the manufacturing hub in Southern Nigeria.

They said that the plans are embedded in the Benin Industrial Park (BIP) project, which ground-breaking will hold on November 11, at Ikpoba Okha Local Government Area, and is expected to house major manufacturing activities in the state.

A session on healthcare at the summit is expected to rethink healthcare-as-a-business versus healthcare-as-a-public service, to deliver Universal Health Care in the state, which is to be led by the Minister of State for Health, Dr. Osagie Ehanire. In a statement yesterday, the state government said that preparations are in top gear for the investment summit, which holds from November 10 to 12, at Edo Hotels, Okada Avenue, Benin City.
