The Lagos State
Governor, Akinwumi Ambode, has described the state as an investment haven and destination for investors.
Ambode made the assertion while commissioning Friesland Campina WAMCO Nigeria mega warehouse in Ikeja, Lagos recently.
Represented by the state Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice Adeniji Kazeem, the Governor said, “the event is remarkable for Lagos State, because it is another endorsement to our continued efforts, to tell the world that Lagos is the place to invest.
Over the years, WAMCO has proven itself to be a proactive company of integrity, professionalism with internationally acclaimed best practices.
This I believe is the reason why the peak brand has endured for so long and is still the leading and preferred milk brand today,” he opined.
He enjoined the management of the company to be diligent in tax payment and always employ best practices in all their activities.
In Lagos State, we emphasise the importance of paying your tax regularly. Companies and individuals who evade their tax definitely work against the interest of the state” he further posited.
