He also identified over-population as one of the biggest challenges on the Lagos Island CBD.
“Lagos State is the only thriving state in Nigeria. The crowd on the Island is too much; we are talking about human traffic. Managing human traffic is not easy. When you have a large number of people coming to the Lagos Island CBD, it comes with challenges,” he said.
