I know how may billions had been sunk to periodically reclaim Bar Beach and they say that they have found a permanent solution ( i keep my fingers crossed).
I just think it is risky to site such a huge project so close to the beach line, it will require billions in the future to maintain just like Ahmadu Bello rd. They should have moved tho project a bit inland, maybe Ikorodu or Epe which is a high land.
I definitely agree with you. I was driving by Ahmadu Bello Way yesterday and what I saw got me thinking. I saw some construction guys trying to pick up stones from the main road and putting them back to block spaces where water has flushed them from. It appears that the water is actually over flowing again and its washing away the stones and other stuff used in the construction work.
It is important that we realise that nature always has a way of balancing its self. If lands a reclaimed from the Atlantic ocean for such project as the Atlantic city, it does not mean a reduction in water volume. so what nature simply does is move the mass volume of water to where it can find space ( the pressure is what causes flooding).
I would have preffer ed if such projects are sited in other high land areas in the state.
All the same the State Government is doing well.
