Global data center and interconnection provider, Digital Realty, has officially launched its third data center in Lagos, South-West Nigeria, expanding its footprint in West Africa and reinforcing its commitment to powering Nigeria’s digital economy.
The new facility, tagged LKK2, adds nearly 2 megawatts (MW) of IT capacity across 23,000 square feet of data hall space. It is strategically located in Lekki and fully integrated with Digital Realty’s existing LKK1 site, which also hosts the landing station for the 2Africa subsea cable. This integration gives Nigerian businesses direct access to low-latency global connectivity spanning Africa, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.
Speaking at the launch event in Lagos, Ikechukwu Nnamani, Managing Director of Digital Realty Nigeria, described LKK2 as a “critical milestone” in the company’s investment journey. “Our continued investment in Nigeria and Africa reinforces our commitment to enabling seamless global interconnectivity and providing a future-ready infrastructure platform for local and global enterprises,” he said.
The data center is built to Tier 3+ standards, featuring redundant power and cooling systems, a 2 MW IT load, and six layers of controlled access with 24/7 monitoring to ensure secure and uninterrupted operations.
Beyond infrastructure, Digital Realty also addressed environmental and logistical challenges at the Lekki site by constructing a 4.2-kilometer paved road, a 33kV power line, and a flood defense wall designed to protect the campus for up to 275 years. These efforts have transformed the surrounding area into a rapidly developing hub, attracting new businesses, estates, and investments.
With LKK2, Digital Realty becomes the first carrier-neutral operator to run two independent campuses in Lagos, further strengthening Nigeria’s role in the global digital economy.
