It still baffles me how a lot of Nigerians got themselves hoodwinked by a fraudster called Tinubu.

This project is a scam. HiTec does not have the experience and capacity to do that type of road. Even Julius Berger will struggle to complete that road.....on their own, talk down of a company formed some years back with Lebanese and Arab engineers.

That project will never pass Lekki axis.

If you have been there, you will know that place don't worth 1b. It's normal for igbos to always hype their business. If you know the naira equivalent of 200m dollars and see landmark beach, you will be ashamed of yourself for even writing this. How much is the worth of prestigious Eko hotel at VI, that host all the biggest event in Nigeria and destination to top politicians, government functionaries, big businessmen and top celebrities. Even Adenuga towers in banana island, which is the most expensive mansion there is not worth that amount. Come to island and move around and see things.

Guy are you this stupid in reasoning. This man never hyped his investment, that is the true valuation of the investment. How on earth can you compare Adenuga towers in Banana island to this. Bros you get sense at all

This kind of project will end once Tinubu or APC loses power

There's always been issue of continuity in Nigeria.
The next president will not want to conclude the project, because the glory will go to the opposition, especially for a project that may not have short term visible effects.

It is even better to strengthen the railway networks from Lagos to SS than this project

No it is not about continuity. The project makes no sense economically. You have ports littered all over the SS, why not expand them at least to the size of Tincan and Apapa and turn the entire coast of Nigeria to a maritime hub and then work on the rail and road access from the hinterland to these ports. There is no prosperity with that road.

Construction doesn't follow linear projection like that. You can take 3 years laying foundation while the main structure itself will take just 3months.

And don't also forget that momentum will ramp up as well as they progress.

No momentum will ramp up na white elephant project be dis. They have not even reached the main challenging part of the road which is from Warri all the way to PH, which is the entire length of the Niger delta where you go see better swamp and creeks wey you go sandfill tire. The truth is unravelling that this project will only start and end in Lagos. It was just a cover to complete the coastal road which Lagos state couldn't do because of funds.

There are over 100 countries where foreigners are not allowed to own property. Even countries like the UK, Sweden and Australia are currently looking into restricting foreign ownership of property in the country or in certain areas.

So first of all you and I know that this Biafra agitation is just a scam as the Ibos are the greatest beneficiaries of project Nigeria and your real intention is to dominate the rest of Nigeri. but just in case you believe the hype and think you can have Biafra and own property in Nigeria, a rude awakening awaits you. I hope you all know that even today all property purchased after 1975 is leased not owned and a governor can revoke the cofo of any property and one of the grounds is threat to security. Furthermore in the case of a split of the country, the constituent parts are free to pass any laws as they deem fit over their territory including who can own or lease property. Finally if the country were to hypothetically split. It is only the best of the Ibos that will be allowed in just like they chase you out of Ghana and South Africa etc etc. those who come here on night buses to eek a living your region cannot provide for you (aka 90% of you noisemakers on nairaland) will be sent packing.

Walahi you don't have sense and you don't know the implication on investors abi. Check FB and Microsoft were told from HQ to limit any investment in Nigeria and move to other countries that is no concern to you abi. Then you want a double wami where land rights are abused needlessly because you want to teach a tribe a lesson. You don't have sense

Speaking from your hut in Agulu village.
So beach front that they demolished only swimming pool is worth $200m? Now I see why it is very easy to deceive you people . From Ojukwu to Kanu to Ekpa now Landmark CEO.

So what point have you really proved. Only just being stupid. Did you see the documentary on the businesses that were affected by the beach front demolition? It wasn't just the swimming pool and woman who had business there was also affected and many others.

I was there to confirm, I can authoritatively inform you that no landmark building was demolished, the buildings demolished belong to the Yourbas and you don't see them wailing like you losers.
Igbos just love to term any policy initiated in South West as anti Igbos in order to score cheap political points and to paint Yorubas as anti Igbos.
We all remember IPOB terrorists and cannibals activities in South East where thousands have been killed and socio-economic life paralysed. Also people have been forced to sit at home against their will.
Have you seen anyone who said "invest in South East at your peril"
They are hypocrites and wailers.

I started becoming irritated by Igbos more because of this coastal road. You know why? I am.personally affected. My house was marked for demolition and because of that, i have first hand info.

Yorubas have more valued properties that are affected but we all started agitating with government without making noise and without political undertones.

Up till now you still don't have common sense! Several times Umahi challenges Landmark to come out if his property was destroyed but he did not. So do you now know more than Land mark?

You rather don't have sense at all. If Mr Ibe brings the proof the same you people will shout that he is making noise. Never the less the man is already being invited by other sensible countries to invest in beach front tourism. This is already the Lagos loss as the revenue they should have earned has gone elsewhere and more companies will do the same. You really don't see the implication of this rubbish these people in power are doing.
Tinubu deliberately targeted the landmark beachfront to enable his guy Chargoury expand Eko Atlantic because the original plan of the coastal road was from water corporation drive.

You are really a dunce walahi. So Landmark has shanties. Do you know what shanties are? You are not looking at the economic implication of this action. This man employs Yorubas who work for him, now serious and sensible countries have invited him to invest all that revenue and job opportunities gone.

You think everyone hawks gala like you? For your Information, before landmark started his IGBO PROPAGANDA, We already got a lawyer in my area, paid the Estate valuer recommended by the ministry of works from Abuja who did valuation of all the properties so we know the value.
It was that document we were using to negotiate with government and plead for realignment.

We were also.meeting with affected property owners in different axis including your landmark.

We have several.whatsapp groups for property owners. The IGBOS are the least affected. Landmark was never touched eventually. Only his swimming pool and illegal structures built by the shoreline. Ordinarily, he is supposed to pay government for them to remove those structures.

The igbos that were affected don't have legal titles for the properties. They went ahead to bribe and build on the gazetted road.

The realignment is just to save face. These issues should have been sorted out during the EIA and final design approval. The project is shady bro.

I will tell you for free. If the government had insisted on the original gazette marked since 1980s, many properties will be destroyed and government won't have to pay compensation.

Over the years, people started building on the gazetted road thinking the project is dead. Of course they bribed government officials to look away. It is not everything you read in the papers that is true.


The government tried to avoid so many structures including those that even built on the gazetted road.

However, once they realigned your own, it will affect new owners infront. If they had avoided Landmark shanties completely, they would have to destroy many more structures infront.


At a time, we kept quiet and were doing our agitation silently because if we make noise, it will affect some other people infront too. We had to promise certain.people we would contribute money to build for them elsewhere If the new realignment affects them so that they won't start shouting too.

You think it is easy. You guys don't know anything
Re: Lagos-Calabar Highway: FG Reroutes Mega Project, Slashes Lanes To Six by Aussie2doc: 4:55am On Jun 13
By the way, Landmark could have achieved more silently without making noise. By making so much noise, he allowed other properties owners that would be affected by a new realignment to quickly stand up and start their own agitation too so there was no way the government could re route anything again.

It is not everything that we must turn to Igbo agenda.

It is not envy or jealousy but blatant corruption and state capture. Tinubu intends to destroy Lnadmark and replace it with Eko Atlantic 2.

Igbo's must stop this weak and stupid victimisation behaviour. The people attacking Igbo's interests are doing it out of greed and corruption.
