The meeting focused on strengthening economic partnerships and exploring new avenues to position Lagos as a thriving hub for investment within the Commonwealth and beyond.

Governor Sanwo-Olu highlighted Lagos’ strategic role as Nigeria’s economic capital, stressing the government’s commitment to fostering an enabling environment for trade, innovation, and global partnerships.

“We are determined to continue building Lagos as a hub for business and investment opportunities, not only for Nigeria but for the wider region,” the governor said.

Lord Marland commended Lagos’ progress and expressed the council’s readiness to deepen collaboration, particularly in areas that can generate long-term value for Lagosians.

Business Impact
This engagement opens doors for increased participation of Commonwealth companies in Lagos’ growth sectors such as infrastructure, renewable energy, manufacturing, and the digital economy.
