Governor Akinwunmi Ambode
Lagos State governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode, yesterday, said about
$60million would be pumped into the ongoing development of the Lekki
Free Trade Zone (LFTZ) within the next six months.
The governor, who spoke when he met with stakeholders at the Zone,
assured that he remains committed to addressing the challenges and
ensuring the project is actualised.
“I want to assure that our financial commitment to LFTZ will be
improved in 2017, that is, we will accelerate to quickly clear our
outstanding counterpart funding for the Zone.
“In essence, we expect that in the next six month, we should be
having an investment of over $60 million. I believe that when we invest
our share of the fund and China Africa Lekki Investment Limited (CALIL)
does, it will bring a major development for the Zone,” he said.
