Lagos Teams Up with Portuguese Firm to Launch Lekki-Epe International Airport!

The Lagos State Government is making strides toward enhancing its aviation infrastructure with exciting news: a potential partnership with the renowned Portuguese construction firm, Mota-Engil Consortium, for the much-anticipated Lekki-Epe International Airport project. This ambitious initiative aims to alleviate congestion at the bustling Murtala Mohammed International Airport, which has been a significant concern for both local and international travelers.

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu announced this promising collaboration during his recent two-day working visit to Portugal, openly sharing his enthusiasm via social media. His tweet highlighted Mota-Engil’s impressive array of large-scale infrastructure projects across Africa and Europe, particularly the notable construction of Porto’s Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport. This strong precedent positions Mota-Engil as a frontrunner in helping realize Lagos State’s vision for enhanced airport facilities.

Sanwo-Olu emphasized the importance of attracting skilled foreign investors to support the THEMES+ development agenda, a strategic blueprint aimed at improving various sectors in Lagos. He expressed optimism for the Lekki-Epe International Airport project, projecting the first phase of construction to come in at an estimated cost of 0 million. This landmark airport is set to serve the rapidly expanding Lekki axis, one of the state’s key economic corridors, which is brimming with potential and growth opportunities.

The Lekki-Epe region is identified as one of Lagos State’s four major growth corridors. With a growing population and booming businesses, the infrastructure developments in this area are crucial not only for local residents but also for international passengers and investors keen on tapping into Nigeria’s extensive market.

As the project unfolds, it promises to usher in new opportunities and elevate Lagos’s stature as a significant global aviation hub. The collaboration with Mota-Engil could bring state-of-the-art facilities and a modern approach to aviation, reinforcing the city’s position on the world stage.

This commitment to enhance air travel and connectivity reflects Lagos State’s proactive stance in fostering economic growth and embracing infrastructural advancements. The Lekki-Epe International Airport is not just an airport; it symbolizes progress and a forward-thinking outlook for Nigeria.

Stay tuned for more updates as this exciting project continues to develop. For now, the Lagos State Government is focused on making significant strides in transforming its aviation infrastructure to match its growing economic importance.
