Dozis:
They should just privatise the place, it was a ghost of its former self before this recent renovation.
If it's not privatised, government will continue bro misuse it and renovate it again thus making it another avenue to loot more resources, I know they will still steal the proceeds of the privatisation.

Dey take style read nah. It HAS been privatised

As beautiful as the exterior looks the interior is almost empty. I hope they're not sold it and that it's just a change of normeclature. There used to be a drinking spot within the complex in the 80s where jide Kosoko, Adebayo Salami(Oga Bello) and Co hangout to gozzle beer.

who wan Remember that kind long name

how does that even affect national Development

It makes no difference

Franking:

Small pikin. You suppose see am that year - circa 1977/78. Na there man watch James Bond The Spy Who Loved Me, Car Wash, Bisi Daughter of the River, Ogunde'a Aiye, etc etc. Fantastic world class venue back then. Naija nor get shikini maintenance culture.

Parachoko:

Overrated state.

The Greatest Scams In Football History

https://www.footballorbit.com/greatest-scams-football-history/#more

Wicked clowns trying to be president of an evil country and people.

I remember winning the 2nd place award in Performance Poetry at the National Theatre in 2005, at the ANA-Lagos Poetry Festival.
Nostalgia!
I can't wait to go back there after the renovation.

Wrong move and won't make the situation any better bt rather worse.

The national theatre is historical and the name shouldn't be tempered with.

I hope this nonesense is reversed. They have just belittled a historical monument to a creative and entertainment inept joint

Buhari govt. Is good in renaming.

Larrysung:
I'm always skeptical about anything that comes out of Lai's mouth. However, this development is long over due; most people would still refer it to as national theatre. I'm happy for the building sha

Give that news two weeks if there's no denier you can confirm it.

chiedu7:
Why dem no name am "Tinubu Creative And Entertainment Center"?

No be am get Lagos?

Don't hate brother, worry more about the killings and destructions going on in your region. Too many killings going on there lately.

Larrysung:
But wait o, $100M How much will building a new one cost?

Thats over 50 billion naira

When Buhari government say $100m for refurbishing, they mean $30m for the job done...... and $70m looting for Lai Mohammed and presidency pockets

Peppysco:

Why will I hate a man who owns Lagos?
I'm more worried that you're okay with it.

Nevertheless I'm not sure there are more killings in the east than there are ritual killings in the west

Can we see the inside of the so called refurbished edifice!!

I am curious to see what the Banker's Committee has spent $100mln on

You all need to change your thinking, man. That you run an egalitarian principle does not mean others must do same. Everyone cannot talk and expect to be heard at the same time. The Yorubas political structure is based on leadership structure and if this is different from your region's structure, you don't have to hate them for that. You cannot go into a man's house and tell him how to run his family. That you worry that they're ok with it, according to you, that shouldn't be your concern, worry more about the damages and lack of political representation and achievements your egalitarian principles is causing your region.
Lastly, I'm not sure your conversant with the news lately, there have been more killings in the East recently either by UGM or Igbos. You really need to worry more about that and leave Lagos state or SW alone

A lot of things need to be renamed...

We have an international airport named after a genocidal beast, expressways and roads named after coup plotters and co-conspirators, a stadium named after a coup financier ...

Nice one
E remain national stadium, that place needs seriously renovations……

They couldn't find a nice, short and snazzy name to give the edifice rather than this longwinded tongue twister? Incompetent fools.

Awon were just dey waste opportunities,dey should go and copy Obasanjo Presidential library and learn,include shoprite, museum and bank,the money for construction will be returning back in less than 2years taking advantage of the lagos rail station nearby.

That place is supposed to be the hub of music and film shooting.

100 million what.

Its road network reconnaissance and drawing I'm working on is giving me headache.

Lagosians and the lagos govt should now put it to good use.
