Lagos To Create More Islands To Curb Land Scarcity by rodeo0070(m): 9:30pm On May 27, 2020
To further increase land availability for Housing and Infrastructural Development, the Lagos State Government has expressed the desire to continue to create more man-made islands at its waterfront across the State.

The Honourable Commissioner for Waterfront Infrastructure Development, Arch. Ahmed Kabiru Abdullahi, disclosed this today at the Year 2020 Ministerial Press Briefing at JJT Park Alausa, Ikeja, to mark the first year of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s administration.

According to the Commissioner, work has commenced on the reclamation of 100 hectares of the land proposed for mixed-use development named “Ostia Islands”, beside Orange Island at Eti-Osa Local Government Area.

Abdullahi added that approval was also granted for the reclamation of 54.58 hectares at Makoko for redevelopment, while the Majidun-Awori Island project will be embarked upon to bring commercial and residential real estate development to the Ikorodu corridor.

While stating that the projects will be financed through Public-Private Partnership, Abdullahi listed other upcoming projects such as King’s City Island, to be constructed on 150 hectares and located 300 metres north of Victoria Garden City; and Olumegbon Royal Land (Palaver Yard Extension) with proposed 6.6 hectares of land.

He also disclosed that the Lagos State Government has continued to work with its partners at the Orange and Gracefield Islands currently undergoing construction during the period under review.

Why not build a bridge to connect snake island and Tarkwabay. We still have alot of untaped empty land there instead of destabilising the ocean flows with man made Island.

..while hoping that the water won't come to reclaim the land later.

Lagos and indeed the entire southwest need a very fast rail system such that one can still live in Ogun and still work in Lagos with no stories

What do you suggest the government do? Distribute money to them to develop their area?

Tinubu and his APC gang are pretentious comrade champions of the poor.
No achievements in education for all, health care for all, mass transit light rail, sustainable buses and ferries by the private sector.
Nothing like that for optimal job growth.
Instead they are stealing and looting by every means possible with the befuddled people in poverty, clapping for the crumbs thrown at them every now and then.
I thought that most Lagosians are smart. I was wrong.

At best ,it's elitist and self-serving.The policy, just like other government policies, has not taken into consideration the routinely forgotten, the homeless and the poor generally.
