Lagos State governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has said the state’s investments in the agriculture sector would run to $10 billion in the next five years.
He said the state could no longer afford to rely exclusively on other states for its food, adding that it was time for Lagos to unlock its immeasurable agricultural potential through the implementation of the five years roadmap. According to him, the Roadmap essentially focuses on three pillars which are the growth of the upstream sector, growth of the midstream and downstream sectors as well as improvement of the private sector participation.
