The Lagos State Waterways Authority (LASWA) has announced that the implementation of the €410 million Omi Eko water transport project will commence this year and is scheduled for completion by 2030.
The General Manager of LASWA, Oluwadamilola Emmanuel, disclosed this in a statement made available to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Thursday in Lagos.
He stated that the project, aimed at transforming Lagos’ inland waterways into a world-class transportation network, would be financed largely through the Global Gateway Initiative with support from the French Development Agency (AFD), the European Union (EU), and the European Investment Bank (EIB).
