Tolu, what can Lagos teach the world?
I think as geographies like Lagos,

2
00:00:04.840 --> 00:00:09.320
Nigeria, seek funding from the world, I
think we need to also do our own work.

3
00:00:09.500 --> 00:00:13.560
And I think what Lagos has done has shown
an example to other places that look

4
00:00:13.560 --> 00:00:15.320
like Lagos of what doing the work means.

5
00:00:15.550 --> 00:00:20.080
Lagos has the political will and
has now identified over 30 projects,

6
00:00:20.080 --> 00:00:22.880
about $8 billion for
different kinds of investors.

7
00:00:23.210 --> 00:00:26.480
So now there are no excuses
for a place like Lagos, now,

8
00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:30.640
if different kinds of partners can engage
on these $8 billion worth of projects

9
00:00:30.740 --> 00:00:31.920
and support Lagos.

10
00:00:32.230 --> 00:00:37.080
I think that Lagos represents
the chance that the world

11
00:00:37.080 --> 00:00:41.560
has to prove that point. That it's
not just wishful thinking or desire,

12
00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:44.240
but they actually want to
act like Tolu has said.

13
00:00:44.330 --> 00:00:47.760
We have the work done up front. I
think we should just take action,

14
00:00:47.770 --> 00:00:50.160
at this time and partner with Lagos,

15
00:00:50.160 --> 00:00:54.000
and invest with Lagos so that we
see the outcome that we all seek.
