Governor Akinwunmi Ambode has taken to Twitter to announce a recent top achievement of the commercial capital of Nigeria, Lagos.
Global city rankings have rated Lagos as one of the mega cities in the world alongside New York City, Beijing, Tokyo, Shanghai, Mumbai, Rio de Janeiro, Johannesburg, plus more.
See a screenshot of Ambode's post on social media:
As one of those cities having a population in excess of 17 million people. Lagos state government says it is imperative to provide facilities and infrastructure for the city that will cope with such large demographics and which will be of comparable standard to what is obtainable in all other mega cities in the World, so as to ensure high quality life for the residents of Lagos.
In line with these needs and objective, Governor Akinwunmi Ambode has conceived an initiative to provide the city of Lagos with world class residential, business recreational and other facilities that will measure up to what is obtainable in all the mega cities of World.
This will position the state as one of the best cities to live and work on the African Continent.
