Lagos State Government said its 32,000-metric-tonnes Imota rice mill would be completed in June 2020.
State Commissioner for Agriculture, Gbolahan Lawal made the disclosure during an inspection visit to the rice mill at Imota, Ikorodu.
Lawal said the economic importance of the rice mill was very huge, considering the Federal Government policy on importation of rice.
He explained that the mill would create opportunities for the agriculture space, from bagging to transportation and distribution.
The commissioner commended Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu for sustaining the project with more investment, which reflected the continuity of government.
