Governor Sanwo-Olu emphasized that the food hub is a critical step toward achieving food sufficiency and ensuring that Lagos residents have access to affordable agricultural products.
He highlighted the importance of the project in stabilizing market prices and preventing inflation in the food sector.
The infrastructure being developed will include efficient road networks and electricity, making the hub fully operational and capable of supporting Lagos’ growing population and food needs.
The governor’s remarks also pointed to the broader impact of the project, which aims to transform the agricultural landscape in Lagos and surrounding regions.
The Central Logistics Hub will enhance the distribution of food products, making it easier to store and transport goods to various markets.
This will not only help in stabilizing prices but also in reducing post-harvest losses, which are often a significant issue for farmers.
Additionally, Sanwo-Olu’s government is focused on improving food security and creating job opportunities through these projects.
The food hub and psychiatric institute are seen as part of the state’s broader vision for sustainable development, addressing critical areas such as healthcare, food access, and economic growth.
The governor concluded by expressing optimism that both projects would be completed on schedule, contributing to the overall well-being of Lagosians.
He reiterated his commitment to the continuous development of the state, emphasizing that these projects would have a long-lasting positive impact on both the economy and the quality of life for residents.
