Nigeria’s Biggest Mosque, Africa’s First 7-star Hotel Planned For Port Harcourt by 247frolicboss(m): 5:40pm On Oct 27, 2015 |
Following the judgment of the Rivers State Governorship Election Petitions Tribunal that nullified the election of Governor Wike of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), revelations have surfaced about a grand plot to build Nigeria’s biggest mosque in State’s capital city of Port Harcourt. According to sources, the plan, which dates back to 2012, is to repossess a large portion of old Port Harcourt Township from the popular Aggrey Road, through Victoria to Bonny Streets and unto Creek Road and convert it to a new development to be called Great Dawatul City. The developers of the project, which will have Nigeria’s largest Mosque, 6,000 units of 3 and 5 bedroom residential duplexes and world class business arcades as its star attractions intend to use it as a global model to showcase and redefine Islam as a progressive religion in cosmopolitan cities around the world. Funding for the project it was said, had been secured by a billionaire mogul and industrialist who himself had negotiated some years ago to purchase the entire shoreline from the Creek Road axis which he has earmarked for world class luxury apartments and Africa’s first 7 Star hotel. Possession of the shoreline was hindered by the Goodluck Jonathan administration’s refusal to give its nod following agitations by local inhabitants of the area claiming forced eviction. The new plan, it is reliably gathered has got the nod of the Presidency and will have residents and property owners handsomely compensated in return for their lands. A former governor of the State who is already in talks with the promoters of the Estate development assured them of cooperation on the condition that allegations of corruption against him are ignored and the current Governor Nyesom Wike is removed from office to facilitate the smooth implementation of the project. The developers plan to market the project as an open society which would provide jobs for the teeming unemployed and change the skyline and landscape of the Garden City. The area earmarked for the multi billion dollar project already has the highest concentration of Northerners in the city and is expected to see an increase especially of elite class after its completion in 2023. http://www.newshelm.com/2015/10/nigerias-biggest-mosque-africas-first-7.html cc lalasticlala |

I don't see this ever coming to reality. I know that Rivers state is PDP and PDP is Rivers state. I also know that Hon Wike will still win the rerun. 2 Likes |

247frolicboss:6,000 units of 3 and 5 bedroom residential duplexes, world class business arcades, a 7-star hotel in Nigeria and in Port-Harcourt for that matter. Building and maintaining this will definitely provide thousands of jobs and will definitely change the economy of the state for the better in addition to the beautification. This is absolutely a very welcome development, but fools will think otherwise. Unfortunately, many fools abound. |

Would Kano State Govt permit the building of Nigeria's Largest Church within the Old City Walls? If yes, then I approve of this project, if no! Then may fire burn down the Project! 2 Likes |

Forced Islamization of the whole south has ALWAYS been on the agenda of the northerners. But not to worry, we shall bulldoze the mosque the next day after we get Biafra. Even the supposed peaceful Buddhists of Nepal understand the Islamic expansionist agenda. |

one problem Nigerians have is their inability to use their discerning mind to judge issues. first of all, the news is fake with its unreliable source |
