Timfreds:
Only if it can be maintain by subsequent administrations, and not sold to fund budgets as buhari is planning to do.

Dididrumz:
We need more structures like this.
Thumbs up to them.

mordred44:
hope d foundation is solid

Biggest challenge: Electricity.

Ndipe:
Big deal to have a storey building in Akwa Ibom, please get rid of this mentality. We should aim and strive for something bigger.

Swingate:
So what is the economic value of having a tall building that requires a lot of money for maintenance? Some governors are so backward, instead of running your state like a business, look into the creative talents of your people and invest on them to create industries, this will create wealth and beautiful buildings will spring up everywhere.

longetivity:
their governor is really working

phelonrays:


Wonderful edifice

But oil is loosing value

jamesversion:


Attention seeker. Did I quite you?

jericco1:
Magnificent edifice. If such is littered everywhere in Nigeria with prospects of creating job opportunities, then we would be in a saner cline

ChiefAfonja:
I hope this is not built by Nigerian Engineers

In less than few years it will risk collapsing if Nigerian Engineers built it.

They like using substandard materials in a bid to get gains while in the contract

hammerP:
NENGIBO, this is wat we should be doing with our oil money not handing them to almajiri or develop lagos and abuja. cc delishpot

Misscongenialit:


Akwa Ibom should be competing favourably with rivers and lagos state, in the sense that they have all it takes to be a business hub. With more of such buildings some oil giants should be proud to move their complexes to the state, next follows the banks and other financial institutions. Dont forget this state is the hub of fintech, wch is the future . This state does not have to be the wall street of network but can be our own texas with just enough to boost the overall economy.
God will continue to bless you

Tolani045:
haha why we you think like that, what type of hope is that?�

spiralwedge:
Smh

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


Make I comment my reserve.

Bagehot:


In the whole of Nigeria? Sure about this?

StubbornGENIUS:
You must enjoy travelling a lot.

Tomjazzy2:
This isn't the tallest in SS. There's also a 21 storey building in Rivers State -- the Secretariat

Agugbadin:
Even with all of this Akwaibomites will still not relocate to the state, they are all over PHC, I hope that these developments will make them go back home and contribute to the development of our dear state. Akwaibomites are very enterprising with very high technical ability.

Hunchogee:
lol not 21 but 15

Vivianagoja:

Not government project... it's Mobil

funshint:
Beautiful!

blackbriar:




this is not smart building...these are essential requirements in high rise buildings based on building standards.

Smart building is the classification of all your building elements,and products into a model so that you can control whatever parameter you want from costing to green emission issues or even IOT

Hunchogee:

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

sulaak:


Do they have universal health care and education?

What is the status of their electricity, logistics, distribution and seaports that will attract investment?

Hunchogee:
lol not 21 but 15
