Land reclamation is the way forward in Lagos. Lagos has limited land.


The sky is big enough for everyone to fly @bolded

Keep on deceiving yourself the ones which you have reclaimed there is nothing on them. 500 years all of these projects will not be completed there just stage-manage fooling people. Somebody who is does not have money to build on land that wants to build a DC bunch of illiterate. All and the buildings are collapsing like papers

theenchanter:
even though I don't really like the new development. But one thing u should know is that Nigeria is not kenya. These are private sector projects, and any private organization can build anything, anytime and anywhere provided the terms and conditions are met with d govt.

There's nothing like finish this, before starting this here cos it's not a govt entity.

By the way, eko Atlantic, like every other cities around the world can't be "finished" or have u finished building Nairobi?

UAE is like the country, Dubai is a city in UAE. UAE has lands in respect to their population, why is Dubai reclaiming lands?

Lagos has a lot of light but the people are illiterate and stupid if you go to badagry area at the area close to same a border there is a lot of land

Can that useless dunce quoting me above learn that he his never going to worth any serious reply from me. I would rather maltreat shma for free that dignifying the idiot with a serious reply.

we all will mostly be gone.... We would've turned to soil and obviously mixed with concrete for city developments.

So, why worry about the next 500years?

And yes you are my little plaything. I derived pleasure from[b] manipulate you[/b] and subjecting you to my wicked antics. You just like one classmate of mine in high school whom I constantly bullied and he kept coming just to act strong but deep down he was dying inside and always complained to people how he hated coming to school to face my verbal bullying. He was lucky to have switch school the following section else he would have lasted to w en graduate out of junior school with us. Dude was considering suicide. I dealt the hell with him.

Puny brain at work. I told you, your brain has no capacity to correct me. You're dense and stupid, instead of focusing on jargon, which is above your puny brain. Start with basics. Like, know how and where to use 'ing' words.
Articulate yourself well then know how to use punctuation marks.

'on the qui vive' is correct, take it as a new punchline. It's only that your zero brain cells circulated within basics - like a quiver, etc. That's why I even ignored one of your corrections yesterday on 'stick relevant', how on earth can you seek relevant!!! You're a true definition of a dimwit.

samorobo:


This is not the only land reclamation project going on in Lagos,there are so many,it’s just that EAc is the most publicized.

Lagos is divided into two:
; mainland and island. The latter is mostly purported to be for the rich,that is not to say they aren’t fancy neighborhoods on the mainland . Lagos a city of 20m has limited land spaces and has to start thinking of the future
Most developers wouldn’t want to move to the mainland plus in my opinion land space on the mainland is almost consumed. Now on the the island. Vi,ikoyi,lekki is gradually choking developers have the choice of going north of Lagos(Epe axis and the likes) that has vast expanse of land stretching all the way to ogun state but then again it’s very far from the typical Lagos,almost as if you are traveling out of Lagos to a very remote neighboring village so they are down to reclaiming land to accommodate more taller vertical structures or being patient enough to wait for dangote mega projects in epe axis to spur economic changes that can attract people to the other remote part of Lagos. Already alaro city has done that (their projects literally shares boundaries with dangote refineries and fertilizer plant) and recently a new city called “Isimi Lagos” .Already I think the redline metro train that is nearing completion is stretching all the way to that axis,connecting Epe(dubbed as new Lagos ) to old Lagos. Also the lekki regional road that is ongoing would connect that place to the $2bn 4th mainland bridge U/C ( purported to be the longest bridge in Africa) . All this is to open up that place for easy transit of people and businesses. Once dangote free trade zone is completed ,alongside lekki deep seaport this will employ people that would need places to reside as the distance from old Lagos would be too far to transit everyday. They way you attract businesses as well as people and that where Alaro and isimi Lagos comes in to absorb this demand in a strategically planned community.

The old part of Lagos would need to keep reclaiming to meet up demand of top global business district and that where eko Atlantic,ocean city,illubirin ,IIBC(international imperial business city) and the likes comes in. They need land reclamation for this and that why their projects are strategically built around already existing rich neighborhoods like CI,ikoyi,lekki and the likes.

You wait for one person to bring economical development to Nigeria Lagos is not that congested there is the Western parts like badagry and things which have a lot of land the problem with Lagos it is a dead city which runs on death and it is not self sustaining all of those projects which you built like eco Atlantic adjust debt management. It is not the first time the Nigerian government has tried doing a lot of failed projects I remember in 1992 under babangida they tried it

samorobo:


And his opinions are welcomed just as mine.

You need to see the pattern. The way you trash beautiful towers like GTC, shows the kind of upside-down eye socket you possess. You see beauty as ugly and vice versa .

Suffering and smiling is your nature. Nigerians abroad are not buy properties in Lagos

The reality on the ground should display the project plan from render to timeliness of completion.

I believe those buildings were proposed 20yrs ago?

To be real honest gtc is ugly. No special design,it’s basically bland.

If you look at Lagos just take 1st in Dar es Salaam Tanzania that is the whole of lagos

so those guys just want create kinda of elysium for the rich...
My idea was why not use the money used to reclaim an start with reclaiming makoko coz its an eyesore for lagos..

samorobo:


Land reclamation is also a sign of luxury. Talk of palm Jumeraih in Dubai and others in Singapore,China,Doha e.t.c

bolded ..exactly an thats what i dont agree with ths on Africa country..we still poor

theenchanter:
that's ur own perception. I can't deal with it for u.

U guys always shout that Nigeria has oil and u don't see what they're building with oil money, now u see what they're building with it, u're still complaining about it.

Is ur stupidity not stupid?

calm your titties chanter...when we talk of development in africa we ain ttalking of creating Dubai luxury like stuff..first we feed,cloth an educate our people..then we create elysium

samorobo:


UAE development is pegged to the world not their oil money. It’s a global developers playground cos it’s offer enticing incentives like zero taxes owning to the fact that it is one big free trade zone. So yeah it’s a win-win for the developers.

In fact let me shock you,some of those tall scrapes you see in Dubai are funded by big real estate companies in Nigeria. Nigerian projects are all over Dubai. Who doesn’t live free things. I would I want to invest in Nigeria with unstable economy and still pay wicked taxes when I can go build more in Dubai and enjoy so many free incentives that comes along with it. You get my point now .

An thats why i dont blame Naijas investing here in Kenya ...you invest where you think ya gonna get higher returns for your money...

mtisQ:

its not an eyesore. It's what your eyes saw and you always want to see.
Imagine govt harnessing the tourism potential of makoko.
Like reinforcing those shacks and building a narrow bridge through it, it's almost like a whole city sitting on water.
Makoko is inhabited by foreigners, like 90% tabs their main biz, is fishing.

Again makoko is a thriving city, no matter the sight.

GeneralDae:

Lagos is actually the smallest state in Nigeria.

Then diversify an invest in other states...Am starting to see a pattern in most African countries

Dude unless ya a white dude just feeling good looking at poor people suffering..aah nope...Ths slum tourism is for sadists

mtisQ:

You are right, but looking at it another way. When we build these new expensive places for the super rich and they migrate, then the prices in their former areas would reduce to the level of the middle class who would then occupy those areas. Slowly the poor would come around in time.
It's sometimes easier to build starting from scratch than to renovate.

mtisQ:

True an that whats happens in most cities..In Nairobi our Eastland used to be middle class back days ...Now its a passage to other flashy estates. Actually most rich guys in Kenya had a connection with Eastlands

GeneralDae:

tourism for sadists.

Bro many of those white folks have a sadistic like way of experiencing pleasure.. Like what the freak do you enjoy by visiting Kibera or makoko

mtisQ:

nice one

jerk yourself while watching a guy suffer

mtisQ:

So?
This development are for the rich and not the poor. Let the poor focus on bare land.

mtisQ:

so those guys just want create kinda of elysium for the rich...

So is kibera
Have you reclaimed kibera land?

mtisQ:


calm your titties chanter...when we talk of development in africa we ain ttalking of creating Dubai luxury like stuff..first we feed,cloth an educate our people..then we create elysium

Good you said luxury.
Luxury is for the rich not the poor. The rich does t have to reduce their standard just cos they are in poor Africa. Let the poor hustle hard and joy the rich to enjoy this stuff instead of whining like Marxist.

mtisQ:

An thats why i dont blame Naijas investing here in Kenya ...you invest where you think ya gonna get higher returns for your money...

Naija a in Kenya has an ulterior motive don’t be deceived.I know my people very well.
