The invitation for Lagos to participate in the London procession underscores the state’s “growing economic prominence,” according to event organizers. Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, who led Nigeria’s contingent to the parade, sees the state’s participation as an invitation to the world to witness the progress and potential of Lagos.
