Lagos should set up its own Power generation and distribution outfit.
If all the laudable plan must come to fruition.
Without power, it will continue to be the same story.

This office has been opened since governors inauguration. I know someone that works there. Why the launch now?

Spot on. I think this what Lagos should concentrate on. They should set up there power outfit and forget the slowpoke federal government electricity grid

Will d LASG supply forex to foreign investors who wld wnt to bring in their goods n repatriate profits or do they have a special arrangement for such foreign investor.
