Abeg nothing smart about the building, we sabi name structure smart. Na only in Nigeria govt go build structure and name it state of the art and smart projects. Nonsense people

Since you know what makes a building smart, why not take a trip there to see if actually it is smart or not

Tolani045:
how smart it's?

Read through the article again bro

MOGPRAISE:
This will attract international investors and most of the oil companies with head offices outside the state will relocate back to Akwa Ibom sharply.


God bless Akwa Ibomites & Nigerians at large

If you really believe that on the strength of the building alone then.........

Jeamillz2020:

Factfinder1:
Akwa ibom leads others follow...proud of my fathers land

You should bro

Hunchogee:
HBD to you

Thanks boss

I see a discrepancy in the thread title and a sentence in the body of the story and those pics look like architectural
drawings. And didn't the governor just reject some help from ExxonMobil? Not good policy and public relations when you are trying to attract foreign investment. And who owns the title of the project, Akwa Ibom or a private company?


"Akwa Ibom 21 Storey Building Ready (Pictures)"

"The project which kicked off on 17th January, 2018 with a two year work term is scheduled for completion by the end of this year, precisely on 17th December, 2020."

Now on a positive vibe, I hope the building becomes fully leased/rented/occupied and hundreds of qualified graduates and career ppl get very good salaried jobs in the edifice.

Kingrefreshed:




Everyone pause a second.

Just imagine we have 20 buildings like this in one street,Left and right.

Imagine it all the state Capitals in Nigeria.

What is Las vegas??

Oh i remember Nepa!

About 50 years after Ibadan's Cocoa House, oil-rich AKS (South-South in general) is celebrating their first high-building. Nigeria really dragged SW back.


Make I comment my reserve.

A really unnecessary comment and comparison. Lagos was the capital of Nigeria and received development during colonial times before we gained independence, if im not wrong Lagos is above 50 years old as it was also built with the collective effort of all Nigeria before the capital was moved away from there and you're here dragging Akwa ibom a state founded as recently as 1987, experienced bloody civil war from 1967 to 1970 while you were going to Cinema and drinking wine in lagos and is developing at a very rapid race, outside Lagos can you compare Oyo or ekiti or osun to Akwa Ibom in terms of development, please stop being a big fool and pass,we didn't beg u to comment.

Angelfrost:
Great developmental strides...

However, they should make far greater efforts to attract investors and diversify the state economy... Economic activities are the hallmark of a flourishing state!!!

Think before you comment....fellow my previous post then you will have answer to your worries

Must you be pitiful?
Where was Akwa Ibom 50years ago or what was the scene like... And what is the ancient City like today?
It's good u "comment your reserve"

Rats are rats and that is why the same Rattraps will kill their papa, mama, brothers, sisters, friends and still kill them. Oil prices nose diving; everything oil taken over by Fulani; yet, every investment is oil focused, as the world is going smart and solar energy powered. Africa will still be looking for whom to blame when all our leaders do is show limited reasoning and roll in the muds of competition in ostentatious life as well as projects that have less and less chances of widespread impacts on their people. In Oyo, they celebrated the longest drum with hundreds of millions, with a Nobel Laurette commissioned to graze the occasion with obscurantist grammatical acrobatics; while thousands of civil servants were unpaid for months. Up north a governor is busy building hundreds of mosques and others upgrading the emirate courts or buying limousines for emirs while they rank the most miserable societies on earth and millions of their school age children are active homeless beggars. Now, with Ibomites lining up for domestic servants, hundreds of them fleeing hardships in the land, some forced by circumstances to child-prostitution, many dying of hunger and others dying from frustration after political thuggery; people are celebrating first smart and tallest building in south south or Nigeria. In saner climes, the money used for information and advertisement, genuine costs and the ones siphoned in the name of this project alone could lift some 10 to 20 thousand people out of poverty and create some serious multiplier effects on the state economy. Why are we so cursed with leadership?

LieDetector:
where in uyo is this building located? I'm in uyo but haven't heard about it

That's bad, it is located in banking layout at udoudoma

onoms4luv:
well this doesn't look bad. I heard someone said first in Nigeria. Lemme just mind my own business first.

First smart building not structure but smart building in nigeria pls name another one if any

You're funny, when was Akwa Ibom created?, when did it start developing compared to old ancient Yoruba areas that have been around since colonial times? The only thing Ibadan surpasses Akwa with is it's brown roofs.

WHo told you UDOM is working? You won't leave that clueless ONNA man.

Hunchogee:

Nope dear, first in Nigeria google it ( first smart building in 9ja)

is a lie. There is one by glover road by Golden gate ikoyi lagos

How many people will they employ in that building?
Las las, only politicians children will end up there, placed in well conditioned offices in semi empty halls. They will only employ cleaners and drivers as junior staff, then some admin suffer head staff that will do all the work and get peanuts.

I will give them some credit because their people are no longer stereotyped as maids and houseboys in other states. They are better than some useless states like Edo and delta.

angelfallz:
Why do Nigerians and at large Africans want to be like the white man? Why must we have tall buildings before we can call ourselves developed?

The foreign companies have standards which if you cannot meet their minimum standards of safety and aesthetics, they cannot do business with you.

How many banks in Nigeria rent offices ? The buildings do not meet their minimum standards.

EThe Guy is right.Their its type in V/I Lagos,TeraKota building if I’m not mistaken.Even look attractive than dis newly built one in Akwa Ibom

Post picture of it and what make it smart...the smartness is not about the lighting ok

Hunchogee:

Think before you comment....fellow my previous post then you will have answer to your worries

At the bold comment, what exactly is the thrust of that nasty retort??!... What part of my comment came off as "thoughtless" ??!... Shouldn't increased economic activities be the goal of every single state of the federation??!

Even highly economic states like Lagos, Ogun, Anambra and Kano are consistently striving to attract more investors... Has Akwa-Ibom arrived to the point of making this needless??! Or are you having very serious issues with comprehension this morning??!...

Some of you really don't know how to conduct yourselves in a proper discourse... Smh!!!
