To the well meaning Nigerians that think oh os only hate Fulani Hausa Yoruba you can see that Delta n Akwa ibom weren't spared in this clown bigoted criticism.

If I list abandoned project in Igboland I will still be listing till Jesus return but I rather not be consumed with endemic n irredeemable hate like the OP.

The Eko Atlantic you badmouth tomorrow igbos will claim the built it that is how despicable a pig the OP is.
Did you read what he posted at all? Everything he posted cuts across Southern states.

It will curb erosion from submerging the great part of Victoria Island. Savings billions of dollars invested by Lagosians.
story... the question should be why invest billions in an erosion prone island... ?

Op is already listing abandoned projects in igboland. He does not need your help.

You are the one filled with hate.
See as you rushed to vomit your bile.


Bogus projects that meant nothing to the masses, is that one a project?
Wasted resources. Some states are still servicing the debt these empty projects incurred

Why would a reasonable person call Eko Atlantic an elephant project?

Ibos should channel their frustration elsewhere.

Yotuba are not responsible for the array of bad leaders that litter their region. It has been like that since the days of Azikwe

Elephant projects are rare in Yoruba land.

Eko Atlantic is not been built for the average lagosian. Secondly, it's not a government funded project.

You better go to Eko Atlantic and see construction work going on yourself



Some of you guys on Nairaland are extremely stupid.

You have never been to Eko Atlantic city, but you claim is a white elephant project. I told you to visit and see the construction work going there... Look at the kind of foolish reply you gave me.

Some of you guys are irritating.

You just love bringing your fraustration online and start lamenting.

Why not you go there and snap some pictures. As far as I'm concerned it's as good as empty.

Well Mr OP! I think u re forgetting something here…

the Eko Atlantic City hosted the The 2022 NBA AGC, themed Bold Transitions!

The NBA conference is a huge deal! If u’ve been to one ! Its a total lock down for such state hosting it!

Secondly Eko Atlantic is the newest business district thereby reducing the existing pressure from VI… as you know Businesses in VI are not owned by the poor! So the same applies to Eko Atlantic!

Thirdly its a sand filled area! You don’t just build right away on areas recovered from the sea via sand filling! Uve got to make it settle and this takes years! VI, part of Marina was also sand filled in order to expand the areas available to offices.

Lastly! It is private driven with no kobo from government other than creating an enabling environment!

Have you been to Manhattan USA… or city centres as they call it! It’s not meant for the poor!

Please disabuse your mind that since the poor cannot afford then it’s of no benefit

Not everyone can afford data to access Nairaland! That doesn’t make it any less useful!

Thank you and God bless

For those who don't understand the meaning of white elephant.

It just simply means bojo boju. The more you look the less you see .

Of course they are beautiful oh so precious, but the purpose of building it is useless because it will eventually end up in ruins .

First on the list we start with bobo Chicago Dubai.

When you ask the Ronu nomenclatures what did Bola do in Lagos them go dey do erhmm ermmm.

OGA what did he do ? Erhmmmm but he build Eco Atlantic.

Now Eco Atlantic is a white elephant project.

To even start with it's not for the common man , middle class or what you classify as rich .

Only super rich.

To make you understand a rent in eco Atlantic for one of the semi building partially completed is more than 3 million for 1 bedroom flat.

Uncompleted building o.


Lagos - Perennially uncompleted, environmentally unsustainable, hilariously expensive, private-sector-led-but-distinctly-Ajaokuta-esque, Tesco-value Dubai off the coast of Victoria Island.

Looks sexy in its glossy Autocad renders though.

Courtesy the only slayer of giants




Your criticism of Eko Atlantic city is a mere reflection of your unintelligent nature. Can't you reasonably think of cities like Dubai and Doha? Who were the cities designed for? Was it for gala hawking Igbos with sagging scalps and necks, or was it for the rich? You hypocrite.

To curb erosion. Simple and short. If you like call am white elephantiasis project. Owners of properties that were almost submerged into the sea are appreciative of this project.

For your information, it's ppt. The reason the private investors are sand filling and building defence wall to protect the seacoast, and are the ones selling the land and building infrastructures there.

Most of you are olodo.

If you don't have any meaningful contribution just rest. Eko Atlantic is not an elephant project. It is only a failed project or a project that doesn't add value to society can be classified in that category of elephant project.

However, leaving Obi Mono rail to criticise Eko Atlantic is suspicious and grossly unfair
