Eko Atlantic Medical Center by Nobody: 10:45pm On Jun 29, 2015 |
Nigerian expatriate and American citizen Philip Njowusi, has embarked on a project that would not only provide a state-of-the-art medical facility in Lagos, the country’s most populated city, but also attract highly skilled medical practitioners to Nigeria. As the site of this innovative facility, Njowusi selected a location as extraordinary as the project itself: Eko Atlantic, a multibillion-dollar, environmentally sustainable, ultramodern planned development—to be constructed on four square miles of land reclaimed from the Atlantic Ocean. Situated south of Lagos and bordering Victoria Island, the city is expected to be an economic boon for the West African sub region, creating an oasis of opportunity for Lagos’s 17.5 million inhabitants. Architects designed three central campus structures totaling 1,011,570 SF. The largest (370,900-SF) medical building, to be constructed during Phase I of the project, provides space for 150 private in-patient beds within its boomerang-shaped elevated structure and houses the Center’s interventional platform, which includes an emergency room, imaging suites, operating rooms, laboratories, specialty clinics and sleep labs, a pharmacy, and a cancer center. Also located in this building are the Center’s materials management and operational systems areas; its kitchen, dining area, and café; and its administrative offices and conference rooms. Phase II of the project includes the construction of a second medical building (260,998 SF) that also accommodates 150 beds. These two buildings arc into each other, as if they are about to embrace, across an open healing garden and connect via a main corridor that features the facility’s main lobby, information and security desks, and outpatient registration area. On the northeastern corner of the campus, a 26-floor high-rise (379,673-SF) soars above the site’s other buildings; primarily a luxurious residence providing 100 apartments for hospital staff, this structure also houses outpatient medical offices and labs on its first few floors. The medical buildings and the residential/office tower each have separate entrances to access the campus’s 1,200-car parking garage, located on the site’s northwestern corner. Similarly, the tower’s outpatient offices and residences have separate entrances to minimize the impact of public areas on private space.

Obiano and other SE Govs need to do more to convince Igbos rich folks to invest more in their SE homelands instead of the SW -- though I would also pick SW over SE as an investment destination any day! Here's another Igbo/Biafran already scheming how to erect a hospital in the yet-to-be-completed Eko Atlantic city -- even when there's a Centenary city being constructed in Enugu and a similar one, Millenium city, in Anambra, he would still rather build it in Lagos. Small time they will be abusing "Yolobas". Smh. 6 Likes 1 Share |

OduaVanguard: Very stu$pid comment by someone with no ability to reason. Jews have medical centers in virtually all developed countries; far more than in their jewish land. Nothing wrong with Igbos doing the same. Why do yorubas always tell Igbos to go back home if they want to have Biafra or whatever? That's a very stupid thing to say. Only in Africa you will hear this garbage. Yorubas can form their own country and Mr. Adewale who is a multi millionaire in Awka; should be able to continue his business there as long as he has all necessary immigration papers and permits to do so. Likewise the same will apply to Igbos and other ethnic groups in Nigeria. These are enshrined in international laws courtesy of the United Nations. Let's be civilized! 3 Likes |

new2020: Abegi make I hear word! Save your sermon for revival pls. What I said is no different from what Biafran apologists have been screaming all over Nairaland lately, that such investments are rather needed in their own homeland. If you are not a hypocrite then openly condemn such folks that say that on here, but I am not holding my breath expecting that from you coz you never openly condemn the excesses of the Biafrans (they are saints to you), but if and when others lije myself expose their hypocrisy you will quickly jump to their defense. You are nothing but a hypocrite |
