Lekki Free Zone Will Drive Economic Development - Federal Government

The Lekki Free Zone (LFZ) continues to attract more local and foreign investors as Lagos state government seeks to improve the state of infrastructural facilities in the Zone. Sixty-eight firms comprising foreign and local investors with interest in diverse sectors of the economy, as at last week, were said to have so far shown strong intention to do business at the Lekki Free Trade Zone. They cover textile, oil and gas, tourism, real estate, cottage industries, construction, car assembling among others.

Although some listed above will come on stream later as the project develops and expands, however, how soon others will roll into action will depend on the magic that the Lagos State government and its development partners — a consortium of Chinese investors can perform between now and November 2010 when the first phase, according to the management will be opened for business operations.

The first phase of the multi-billion dollars project sits on over 3000 hectares with a huge infrastructural challenge. It is being developed by a group of Chinese firms in partnership with Lagos State. And so far, work on the development of critical infrastructure such as power plant, sewage systems, water treatment plants though ongoing is still a challenge

This is a fragment of swamp/coastal forest and savannah that is now squeezed on all sides by rampant land-grabbing and housing developments which makes it increasingly more valuable, both to the wildlife of course and to local people who might just want to have a glimpse of this heritage.

There are many animals which remain elusive in the tangled undergrowth e.g Mona monkeys, monitor lizards, huge turtles, peacocks, crocodiles, bush bucks, duikers and giant rats can all be seen in this park, together With a countless number of species of birds.
