Lagos State governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu at the weekend unveils Nigeria’s first locally assembled electric car in Lagos. Mr Sanwo-Olu was the special guest of honour at the unveiling.
The electric car, named ‘Hyundai Kona’, was assembled by Stallions Automobile factory.
In his remarks at the launch, Sanwo-Olu said the state government will provide charging points for electric cars, and continue to partner with stakeholders who are ready to bring in innovative ideas that will make Lagos stand out and further create an enabling environment where business can thrive for all investors in the state.
The Managing Director of Stallions Group, Rohtagi Manish, said the innovation is a step towards keying into an eco-friendly green Lagos, as the material used to assemble Nigeria’s First one hundred per cent Electric zero-emission car was mostly sourced locally.
