Ask Peter Obi and his Obidients why they didn't criticise the construction of the Second Niger bridge despite the bad roads in the South East. But because this Coastal road doesn't include Igboland, Peter has suddenly become an activist.

The owner of Landmark was just a politician masquerading as a investor. He said he saw the beach lying fallow and decided to build it up... Without any recourse to federal government the owners or official permit. Is that how things are done in the abroad country he claimed he came from. He was just trying to blackmail the government emotionally to let his personal investment investment be on the beach. The beach is a public property. If he wants to build a proper beach resort he should buy/rent a beachland properly and accordingly and from the rightful owners too which is the F. G.
Thank God his blackmail failed and the road will progress. Gov. Soludo is busy destroying houses everyday in Anambra for new roads but you'll never hear Obi talk. But once it comes to Lagos, you'll see him Obi jumping like a loosened monkey claiming he now loves Lagos more than his SE. Enemies of progress will keep failing.

One day a man will come and claim ur investment and tag it public property and you will just hand it over, say amen.

To Bigots like you, anyone with opposing views is termed an Igbo. You can't reason outside your primordial tribal affiliations. Sorry to burst your archaic reasoning, I'm neither from the listed regions you mentioned. As a concerned Nigerian, I put it to you, how is that project of more pressing issues owing to the severe economic challenges being faced by the citizens? How soon would that road be constructed, is a year or two or more?

In your houses, do you just spend money stupidly when you've lean resources, or apply basic economics using order of preference?

N.B: It would be an effort in futility engaging a bot with several moniker on NL, continue to revel in your idiocy!
Thank u the truly patriotic Nigerian

I remember a time in the late 90s when flooding from ocean waves used to go as far as Federal Palace Hotel and Adeola Odeku. Canoes could be used on Ahmadu Bello way at such times! Eko Atlantic has truly made a difference. Vi no longer experiences that type of serious flooding.

Exactly. A lot of these kids have no clue what it used to be like in that area. Tinubu and Fashola will always be remembered for that singular act of saving Lagos from the Ocean. The Federal govt was clueless and powerless to do anything about the Ocean surge.

Landmark built on a land belonging to either Onikoyi family, or Oniru family, depending on the markers of the property. He would have purchased the land from either of these two families.

Has Onikoyi, or Oniru explained how it happened that Iboman built property on their land? Who sold the land to omoIbo?

Tinubu is a first class graduate of Accounting in Chicago stay university. He transformed Lagos into Dubai and right now, Yorubas are swimming in petrol since he assume power. Dollar is now 300 for agbados while Peter Obi and Igbos are buying dollars for 1300 🤪🤪🤪

Please, which Satellite picture shows Eko Atlantic phase 1 is already failing? Are you technically sound at all? Kindly show us the satellite picture and the failing area.

Most of you think like uncivilized crude Onitsha main market or Ariara trader. In Engineering Design and analysis, background history and environmental conditions are taken into consideration. You cannot even interprete any design, map or picture as you put it you are talking about failing.

Most of you are not happy about this project. Mami Chula Beach facility and others are affected but you concentrate on your brother.

Mami Chula owner is happy seeing Lagos being developed and displayed with developed cities in Africa. Ever since this project began, Africa countries have been displaying highways and road networks and development in their countries. They display Jo'burg, Capetown, Durban, Dar res salaam, Cairo, Nairobi, Addis, Kigali and other new developed cities and development. Nigerians turned it to another thing entirely on Facebook.

Economic immigrant in Lagos is not after Lagos development but to exploit Lagos and blackmail it.

Have you gone to Landmark beach before? If yes, you'll notice a barricade to the main ocean.

It is this barricade that makes it possible to swim in this end as it reduced the tides from the ocean.

And sadly, sandfilling for Eko Atlantic phase 2 is supposed to start from this sandfilling towards the mainland.

So for people that have knowledge of this area and the planned works, either coastal road or no coastal road, Landmark is destined to lose the ocean front and they are aware.

There are certain questions begging for answer as regards the Lagos Calabar coastal high way, and by extension the situation of landmark and other property owners that will be affected.

First and foremost, there was an initial road design, which property owners around that area followed and observed before erecting their structures.

How do you know the project will cause job loss?

Many idiots and sycophants are online with keypad typing rubbish this days.

Awon losers dede

All of a sudden, there was a change in design. Land Mark was given a seven days notice which was later extended to 14 days. This change in design is going to cost govt more because compensations will be paid to property owners that will be affected.
secondly, there will be great loss of jobs as businesses will be destroyed. The initial design avoids these unnecessary demolitions and saves the govt billions. Jobs will also be saved, why is govt embarking on this frivolous spending and wrecking of businesses when there is a better alternative?

The cost of the project and the way it was awarded is also an issue of National concern. The project cost is at #4 Billion per kilometer. Total cost is about #16 Trillion. The entire 36 states budget is about #14 Trillion. Already about one trillion naira has been paid to HITECH.
How are they going to source the #16 Trillion Naira? Govt has given conflicting addresses on the source of funding for the project.

Why spending the #16 Trillion Naira on a new project when there are already existing roads like the east west road that is calling for serious attention which still serves the same purpose.

Why is the project starting only in Lagos? Shouldnt it be starting at different phases like Cross River and Delta state to expedite the execution?

A lot of things are not making sense about the project.

Propaganda and lamba as usual. But at the end, they have used your head as usual and Lagos once again would be the ultimate winner.

So you want Lagos to be loser. Pull my brother down syndrome.

Without a doubt.

All these fools making noise are ignorant of the situation in that area before Tinubu. I still remember the ocean surge that was constantly flooding the area back then. It was Tinubu that turned the tide and created Eko Atlantic in the process.
That's a visionary man.
Without the barriers and Eko Atlantic, there wouldn't even be Lnadmark in the first place.

Amadu Bello Way used to be flooded and the guest houses that used to be on that road were being abandoned one at a time. I know because I used to rent some of the rooms back then when on Holiday to Nigeria.

May God continue to bless Tinubu and may God continue to bless Nigeria.

You are right sir! Infact lots of states have liason buildings on this axis and they have sold them.

The so called original route- To keep it simple. You only need to look at the Water Corporation "route" supposedly the original route to see that it does not make sense. The so called original route is a red herring. Here is why.

Many properties would have been destroyed using that route. It is not wide enough and there are more developments in its path - It would have led to the loss of more jobs

Landmark clients would have to cross the highway to get to the resort. ( look at the traffic flow)

Government would need a compulsory acquisition order instead of merely claiming its statutory and well established property right from the tide/shore line. Please note the government is not taking anyone's land. Merely asserting it's property right - a fact well known to everyone including the various beach front users.


Regarding why the project is starting in Lagos. This us a nonsense because there the road will be built in phases and one of those phases has road works from calabar.

Cost? The project is cost is not being borne in its entirety by the FGN, I believe the FGN component is about 20% - it has significant private element. This is a tolled highway. There is also the trans africa highway and the badagry to sokoto highway coming up using the same formula.

Re East West road is fine but this is far more strategic and it is not a case of either or. This development opens up several oil rich state economies - many of which are controlled by another party. This road also has a spur that connects to the north. It is a game changer economically and it is not a new idea.

The cost of development is public inconvenience. Whenever you land at Heathrow or Gatwick airport you do well to know that some of those runways attracted significant opposition and public resistance. Today the benefit of those runways is well established. In these two cases, land was compulsorily acquired in the over riding public interest. In Nigeria's case, the government is exercising its statutory rights AND still paying compensation which it is NOT bound to.

why can't we do politics without bitterness in Nigeria? Obi's greatest crime is seeking to be a president that is within his rights as a citizen. now calling him idiot is the most vile thing I've seen. Imagine you come home after work and your father or mother tells you that your neighbor's child called them idiot, what will be your action. Most times we need to draw a line between politics and bitterness. You can criticize him without insult. CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM. Much love and maximum respect to you brother.
