Lagos State Signs Investment Agreement at 3.0 Summit

On Tuesday, Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu signed an investment agreement at the conclusion of the Lagos 3.0 Summit, which took place over two days. The agreement aims to establish a monitoring framework to ensure the implementation of investment commitments made during the summit.

The summit brought together international development institutions, investors, and business leaders, including representatives from the African Continental Free Trade Area Secretariat, European Union, United Nations Development Programme, Afreximbank, and British International Investment. The event showcased investment opportunities across various sectors, including infrastructure, manufacturing, technology, agriculture, and mining.
