Lagos State Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode has reaffirmed his administration’s key strategic imperative to creating a friendly environment to encourage private sector participation in driving economic development of the State.

Ambode, who met with the representatives of APM Terminals to advance the development of the Badagry Deep Sea Port project, a meeting which took place in London, United Kingdom, said the Badagry Deep Sea Port Project with an estimated investment of over $2.3billion would address the infrastructure enhancement and urban renewal agenda of the state.

The Governor, who expressed appreciation on the resolve of the investors to stay the course with the project, said the facility on completion would generate over 500,000 direct and indirect jobs.

He assured that he would spare nothing to see the project to realization, while pledging that the interests of the host communities within the location of the project will be protected.
