Festival Town Lagos has been reduced to Festac Village. Infrastructure especially Roads are so poor. It's a pity that Festac Town in in this state of decadent. |

ringi82:Teary moments as I think back..... During the holidays we all came downstairs with tiny raps of any swallow, newspapers, and stolen sticks of hard brooms (gotten from the meter corner.) We all made kites that were flew into the sky with cloth-thread.... On how many occasions have we ran after kites cut-off from our control tower while the kite was way up in the air ![]() 2 Likes |

Danniedpastor: The Eastern people messed that up with their forced occupation and prostitution and drugs damaged Festac. Festac was compared to Ikoyi back in the day. |

GboyegaD: That was my Primary School, I graduated from there in 1992. I was the Timekeeper in Primary 6 and Mrs Oke was our headmistress. Truth be told, Illegal houses, hotels, and prostitution made Festac lose its glory. Festac was compared to Lekki Peninsula and Ikoyi, this was before people started trooping to Ajah and its environs. |

BreconHills: best comment on this thread so far. You can't discount the influx of the Igbos anyway. They just bought illegally from FHA and lawlessness started creeping into the facets of the once beautiful town, before we knew it, Agberos opened their base on 23 Road and gradually the decay became unstoppable. A one-bedroom flat on 22 Road would have 10 occupants living there and the crime rate would increase. At the end of the day, the original occupants let it rot. I heard some block of flats had working phone after it was allocated and water board was ran efficiently. When people try to circumvent the system, Festac Village is what you get. 1 Like |

raskymonojendor: Everything shouldn’t be about tribalism. FESTAC was built as an average income district, with lots of blocks of flats. It was never intended to be like Ikoyi, VI or Lekki. Its location is also at the fringes/suburbs close to poor neighborhoods. Yet, these pictures you posted or even worse ones are also common to places like Ikeja. It has nothing to do with the tribe. I don’t think Yorubas or Hausas would have created a better ambience if they’re the ones that dominate FESTAC, giving the factors I narrated earlier. Purge yourself of hate. 1 Like |

hammer567: Festac was not built with private money. It was built with 100% public funds. It was private money that came to dislocate the master plan. This is what comes from history not been taught in schools. 1 Like |

AerialMapper: You've actually hit on a key point. Not sure if you realize it. The absence of common space - sold and bought illegally - destroyed the sense of community and ownership. Common areas foster kinship and belonging. They either get shrunk to meaningless sizes or obliterated. Anyone trying to restore that master plan will ne cursed and hated. The people who stole from the people will be celebrated for their "sweat" and "labour" No one worships oppression more than Nigerians. And finally of course there is the religious and tribal card. As if the persons luxury house doubles as a religious or community centre. Nigeria!! That is always the first step on the road to destruction. 1 Like |

YouAreNobody:So you don't know that those places you are mentioning are where the indigens stays, more like their "villages" dating back to hundreds of years, including Lagos Island. Moreover this post is not even about low or high income it is about keeping your environment clean. Majority of the people living in Festac are Igbos ( mind you they bought most of the houses from people) but look at the environmental damage they have done to the place. |

RemoveKebab: If you are asked how exactly did an ethnic group turn FESTAC to an eyesore, you will begin to stutter and look for words. Because you and idiots like you that polluted this thread share a single brain cell and cannot think beyond your prejudices. I want to know any specific enclave in the whole of Nigeria that is thriving due to one ethnic group. |

Harddiskng:wow, there was a time i decided to holiday in lagos and i opted to stay in festac, i rented a hotel just opposite 404 junction, cant remeber thr name of the hotel but its something like "mobility". That was 2019, i got tired of the place afyer just one week, there were police illegally stationed in almost every street amd the hotel i was staying wad an old hotel so i relocated to agboju, omo, my experience in agboju is one of my favorite travel memories. My last question bros, there's one river that you can use to travel to benin Republic, the river is exactly behind the festac estate fence, please what is the name of that river? |

Same thing with una ignorance about Ibadan brown roofs. The beautiful part of Ibadan is bigger than 2 southeast States together. Ibadan is the largest city in West Africa, second largest in Africa after Cairo. Make una try dey use una head even as na akamu full am so |

Bitterkola100: Festac Police seem to be getting worse, by the year. My last experience with them was more than 8 years since i left Festac. That one idiot who saw me with calculator and exam slip wanted to put me inside Korope that I looked like a yahoo boy lol. Bloody Nincompoop! ![]() The whole Festac Police station has to be overhauled. Cuz there are two possible situations: (1) Their Boss is a terrible human being and his filth is running down the ladder (2) They have a good boss but the officers underneath him are too corrupt, in this case its just a matter of time before their boss is converted or disposed off somehow. River used to travel to Benin near Festac? I am not sure. The only body of water around Festac that i know is the canal bridge near 1st gate and the at the back of 4th avenue. 1 Like |
