  • ABUJA: The Senate has passed a bill to establish the Projects Development Agency (PRODA) in Enugu. The bill aims to create PRODA as a statutory agency responsible for conducting scientific, engineering, and technological research.

The Nigerian Senate has passed a bill for the establishment of the Project Development Institute (PRODA) in Enugu State, aiming to enhance research and development in engineering, industrial, and technological fields. The bill, sponsored by Senator Osita Ngwu, seeks to provide a legal framework for PRODA, which has been operational since 1971 but lacked formal legislative backing. The establishment of PRODA is expected to foster innovation, support local industries, and contribute to the economic development of the region by promoting research in areas like engineering design, materials science, and industrial processes. The Senate's decision reflects a commitment to bolstering Nigeria's technological advancement and industrial growth through structured institutional support.
