President Buhari is in Lagos on a two-day visit which began Monday, with the commissioning of the PPP-led $1.5 billion Lekki Deep Seaport, and the Lagos Rice Mill, Imota, believed to be the biggest in Africa.
Governor Sanwo-Olu, on Monday, January 23 welcomed President Buhari to the state for the unveiling and commissioning of the Lekki Deep Sea Port.
In his remark, while welcoming the Nigerian leader, Sanwo-Olu said the project is a massive infrastructure that will, directly and indirectly, create job opportunities for residents of the state.
The Lekki Sea Port project is said to be the largest in Nigeria and Sub-Saharan Africa. The multi-purpose Deep Sea Port promises to offer enormous support to the burgeoning commercial operations across the country and the entire West African region.
