Her words: “With a deliberate focus on building capacity, fostering innovation, and ensuring standardisation, Lagos is set to unlock the immense potential of AfCFTA.”


The deliberations focused on a shared vision: fostering intra-African trade by Africans and ensuring Lagos leads the charge in this ambitious continental trade agenda.


The Technical Working Group’s roadmap signals a bold step toward an integrated and prosperous Africa, with Lagos at the helm of this transformative journey. As the State harmonizes its trade strategy, businesses and entrepreneurs are poised to reap the benefits of an interconnected African market, boosting Lagos' economy and creating new opportunities for its people.


The time for action is now, and Lagos is ready to lead!
