The Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry has advised the Federal Government to ensure consistency in policymaking in order to protect private sector investments.
According to the statement, with infrastructure remaining a critical driver of growth and development, the Lekki Deep Sea Port, Nigeria’s largest seaport with a draught of 16.5m, would support trade and commerce in Nigeria and the entire West African region.
Noting that the Blue Rail Line project would fulfil the request for a multi-modal transport system in Lagos to ease the traffic jams experienced by Lagos residents, the LCCI noted that to maximise the benefits of these infrastructures and facilities, there must be a connecting rail network that supports the movement of goods and persons to fully facilitate trade and commerce within the State and across the West African borders.
