Sanwo-Olu visits Portugal to attract foreign investors
Lagos state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu has departed the State for a two-day working visit to Portugal.
Sanwo-Olu’s visit was aimed at attracting skilled, trustworthy, and capable foreign investors to support the Themes and development agenda of the State.
This was disclosed in a post on the X handle of the State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Wednesday, September 18.
The post reads: “In our drive to attract skilled, trustworthy, and capable foreign investors to support the THEMES+ development agenda, I led a delegation on a two-day working visit to Portugal. Our primary focus was the Mota-Engil Consortium, one of the largest construction companies in Europe.
“During our visit, we toured the Porto International Airport—Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport—constructed by Mota-Engil, which was truly impressive. We also visited their waste management facilities and real estate operations, which provided us with a wealth of knowledge and insight. Mota-Engil has an impressive track record of delivering large infrastructure projects in Africa and this speaks volumes about their capabilities.
“We are focused on potential collaborations for the proposed Lekki-Epe International Airport. This strategic initiative is aimed at alleviating congestion at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport and improving infrastructure along the Lekki-Epe corridor.”
