According to Rathi, the decision to build enabling infrastructure in the zone is intended to make investing easier for both domestic and foreign businesses.JAMB portal
It will also help to increase Nigeria’s appeal for foreign direct investments and economic development, he continued.
“What we have also done apart from creating Lekki Port as a gateway and transhipment hub is the creation of a free zone that is well equipped with world-class infrastructure- warehouses, standard factories, logistics park, etc. All of these are to make the operator come in and plug and play. Operators or investors can thrive in the zone because it provides them with the resilience since they can do it in the most efficient and optimised manner”, he said.
