Fineman2: We don’t Want Concrete Jungles Africans are nature Lovers and don’t like too many Sky scrapers around them it is unnatural We want plenty of Nature around us with good infrastructure Those Skyscrapers are not that healthy and too Confining Africans don’t like living in towers It is better to have 5, well designed and built 8 Storey buildings next to each other than to to have a 40 Storey building When you are building for Africans We love to move about with our feet on Solid Ground with lots of Palm Trees and Fruit Trees with Singing birds everywhere to wake us up every morning and remind us we are still in Africa We love the smell of the morning dew laden Vegetation , it is our early morning blood tonic 4 Likes 1 Share

Fineman2:At this point in time, every Nigerian would have to be willing to pay at least 42% taxes on just their earnings alone to make even Chicago happen. And this is just to begin it all. If the economy does not improve over time, it will cost the people more and more with each new administration. ![]() 6 Likes 3 Shares |

IamANigerianMan:To Seriously, we don't have the kind of money we need to build the kind of cities that are seen Yes, they steal lots of money. I am not denying that. But at the end, Nigeria, at best , assuming crude is 100 dollars a barrel can earn something like 100 bn dollars at least. We actuallyhave more forex than Australia in our reserves. But when you correct for populaton...we have 200m while the Aussies have less than 30 million people. Our leaders have failed us by not diversifying our economy. If they had done so, we would have been richer than all those nations combined. 4 Likes |

Kobojunkie: Thank you, that is the thing that Nigerians do not get. Yes, our leaders steal, and God knows I am so angry with this government now, and all the past governments for enabling the theft, but if they did not steal, the money won't have been enough to make Nigeria great. All them nice cities, they pay heavily in taxes to make them nice. Add the fact that their economies export a mix of manufactured goods and services, and they are very prosperous. Nigeria where everyone wants to be importer or exporter of oyel alone...how is that going to give us the income and good economy we want? I tire. And when you tell Nigerians the truth, they will accuse you of defending corrupt leaders. Abeg.....we need to do more than just jail corrupt leaders to be developed. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Reflect7: Eko Atlantic is just a minute portion of land in the smallest Nigerian state. How many Eko Atlantic can make up for the entire rot from North to South after over 60 years as an independent nation? Even if Nigeria doesn't have money, can our streets match the streets of countries like Namibia, Tanzania and Botswana which are African countries not counted as rich by the way (except for Botswana). Nigeria is really behind no matter which region you're from and it's not about not appreciating one's country. It's just that we need a high level of visionary leadership and commitment to vision over several decades to push this nation forward. However, I don't think we have that among the present crop of politicians. And don't crap me about Zulum, Makinde, Tinubu, Obi or whomever. Whatever ratings we give those is only when compared with their Nigerian counterparts 7 Likes |

Iamgrey5:Decades? These cities were developed centuries ago. Some were built on the back of imperialism, blundering of others resources, colonialism and neo-colonialism( World Bank, IMF and encouraging corrupt leaders from 3rd World countries to keep their loots in their banks). |

Nigeria cannot do it! It will be a waste! Who would pay for the maintenance cost? Nigeria first needs to raise the human capital development of its citizens. Job creation means poverty eradication!

Reflect7:Even if we have better taxing system, you will see how one man will corner the money for his own private use. Sorry to say this, a black man is the cause of his own downfall, will I say it is like a curse inherited from their accentors, when you check the names of the first 10 richest men in the world, no African black man has ever gotten to that level despite the embezzlement they practice when they hold a high profile position. 2 Likes |
