Igboland The Emerging Paradise Of Africa by RareDiamond: 9:53am On Sep 19, 2014
My intention of creating this thread is to showcase to the world the beauty and infrastructural developments of all of Igboland including the Igbo speaking parts of Delta and Rivers states as an emerging paradise our earth. Its is no longer news that the industrious, intelligent, brilliant, hospitable and hard working Igbos are the Joy and Pride of Africa as they are widely traveled. They integrate with their host and develop their land with quality investments. This thread is not a political thread but an informative and educative thread for sane and intelligent minds.

I urge all Igbo sons and daughters as well as neighbors and friends of the Igbo nation to contribute to this thread in terms of nice pictures and news updates on happenings in Ala Igbo. This thread is also meant to bring more unity within the Igbo Nation.

Eziokwu !!! Ala Igbo wu Oke Mba !!! Ala Igbo amaka !!! Chukwu gozie Ala Igbo !!! Iseeee !!! Igbo land is indeed an emerging paradise.

It appears most capital cities in south east are expanding to new frontiers and areas. Imo state have New Owerri which is developed, Enugu have Independence Layout which is developed, Abia State have Ogurube Layout which is developing same with Anambra Greenwood City and Ebonyi Ochudo City. Some states like Imo and Enugu states have even gone further by moving to what i call the "second phase" of expanding their capital cities by commencing the building of 10,000 hectares Imo Chelsea Industrial / Free-trade zone layout in Ngor Okpala which is a new city to be built from the thick hinterland of Ngor Okpala close to the Sam Mbakwe International Airport starting with a 1st phase of 2000 hectares and 1000 hectares Enugu Golf Centenary City. Ala Igbo is expanding at a fast rate and the rate would increase after 2015 elections.

Imo Chelsea Industrial Park

About Us

The Imo Chelsea Industrial Park is the vision of the ever erudite Chairman of the Chelsea Group. It is born out of the necessity to have a self-sufficient Nigeria dependent on locally made produce as well as products thus reducing the need for unnecessary imports. It is also necessary in helping to develop the Igbo states in Nigeria and bring prestige towards the Imo state and Nigeria in general.

The Imo Chelsea Industrial Park Ltd was registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission (C.A.C.) on the 12th of February 2014 with RC No: 1170664.

Area:

10,000Hectares

Place:

IMO State

Resources near by:

Sam Mbakwe Cargo airport
Port Harcourt

It is a partnership between Chelsea Group and the Imo State Government.

The Industrial park will be situated in Imo state and is planned to span a total area of 10,000 hectares with the total area of 2,000 hectares of land having already been acquired and paid for. The Chelsea Group has embarked on a large amount of projects for the benefit of Nigerians in Lagos and Abuja and as this has reserved this mammoth project for the eastern part of the country so as to give back a lasting legacy.

We will promote local industries as well as helping diversify economy away from the over reliance on Oil production and Oil sales.
Infrastructure

POWER STATION

ACCESSIBLE ROAD

DRY PORT

SCHOOLS, HOSPITALS

RAIL LINK

WASTE MANAGEMENT

STAFF QUARTERS / OFFICES

To build a world class industrial area with a first class residential area that anyone from any part of the world would be happy to live in and work in. Therefore, we will make sure that we apply best practice and quality in building and administrating the Park.


Structure Plan

The park is to be sited in Ngo-Okpala local government where commercial and subsistence agriculture are already rife. The location is also very strategic as it is close to the Sam Mbakwe Cargo airport and also a link between Port Harcourt and Abia State (both key commercial hubs in Nigeria). It will span 5 communities in this Local Government Area.

Igbo land as far as I am concerned is the least developed zone in the south. I really wish igbos would invest heavily in their zone the way they do in Lagos, Kano, Kaduna, PH and other cosmopolitan cities in Nigeria.

Developer Opens Enugu Centenary City to the Public

September 8, 2014 by Maureen Ihua-Maduenyi

As part of efforts to provide residential, commercial and industrial properties, Private Estate International West Africa, the developer of Enugu Lifestyle and Golf City, also known as the Centenary City, has said it is opening the estate to the public through the sale of plots of land.

The Managing Director, Private Estates International West Africa, Mr. Kingsley Eze, said the city was designed to offer a lifestyle of luxury, adding that the development of infrastructure and other related costs would gulp $300m and that the project was being executed through a public-private partnership between the Enugu State Government and his organisation.

“Significant progress has been made in infrastructure, while several off takers have commenced construction of their building units,” he added.

Eze said upon completion, the city would have modern infrastructure, including electronic security system, water treatment plants, telecommunication facilities, wireless network, recreational park, hospital and schools.

He said, “Enugu Lifestyle and Golf City is the premiere lifestyle city in sub Saharan-Africa. Covering about 1,097 hectares, the city is characterised by breath-taking vintage layout and a rare fine blend of functionality that impeccably connects living with sustainable grandeur. The residential development caters for a wide range of housing needs, including entry-level, middle-income, executive, and super exclusive homes.

“The community is located around an 18-hole golf course that winds itself around the entire stretch of the development. An additional exclusive nine-hole golf course is located within the Presidential Park Estate and opens to only residents of this super exclusive, ultra-secure community within a very secure Enugu Lifestyle and Golf City. A five-star clubhouse and hotel is planned to be the central meeting point for residents in the community and will be managed by the Marriot brand.”

Enugu Lifestyle & Golf City is arguably one of the most beautifully planned cities in Nigeria. It is set on 1,097 hectares of lush green savannah with the Udi Hills as a picturesque backdrop. Designed around the style and comforts offered by the most advanced cities whilst retaining broad African influences, Enugu Lifestyle and Golf City will be the best place in Nigeria to live, work, learn, play and shop. The residential plots present breathtaking views of the golf course, lakes and reserved green areas. Irrespective of the plot size (ranging from 300m2 – 3,000m2), the city delivers a lifestyle of luxury, serenity and security.
