Lagos state, before now, has been proactive in the area of ICT. If anything, the transformation of Sabo Industrial Estate into a tech hub apears to align with the overall vision to further position the state as a leading catalyst for ICT in the country.

This is a step in the right direction as the initiative could boost innovation and creativity among youths while equally promoting transfer of knowledge, employment generation, wealth creation and economic prosperity for Lagos State government and country as a whole.
