The governor also disclosed that the state is nearing completion of one of the largest children’s hospitals in Africa, alongside ongoing efforts to digitise land administration and revenue systems to enhance transparency and ease of doing business.
According to him, the reforms are designed to unlock opportunities across infrastructure, healthcare and technology, while positioning Lagos as a preferred destination for investors.
Sanwo-Olu further announced that Lagos will host the third edition of “Invest in Lagos” in June, in partnership with the Commonwealth Enterprise and Investment Council.
