Imagine buildings that look like abandoned abattoir is what Lagos State government is building in 2021 as a market for computer village shocked shocked This country is really messed up.

Igbos should relocate the hub to Onitsha. Removing the computer village from Ikeja to that slum doesn't make sense. Bring all your computer business headquarters to Onitsha, including opening of your containers. Even if it means transporting some of the goods back to school, let the end users in Lagos bear the added cost while Onitsha becomes cheaper.

You people and your mumu chest beating. Na only igbos they sell for computer village for your mind. You wey nor get shishi dey come yarn nonsense for here.

Why build such a market for electronic goods? Why not a more sophisticated looking mall for the 21st century? This looks like a place where you go to buy livestock not SSDs and laptops.

The ongoing construction work at the permanent site at Katangowa, Abule Egba Lagos would no doubt, bring huge development to that area. The construction according to the contractor, would be completed in record time. Former Governor Ambode laid the foundation of the modern ICT Market some years back while the current administration is working round the clock to complete the project.

The computer Village in ikeja would be relocated to this location upon completion while the buildings currently occupied by this market in ikeja would be returned to it's residential status. Currently, the Katangowa site is being used by the okrika clothe sellers. This okrika market ranks the largest in Africa. Several people from far and near do visit this market to buy first grade wears and shoes. These okrika sellers would now be relocated to Amikanle/Alaso area of Lagos soon.


The below are some of the pictures of the site
Katangowa is not a yoruba name this must change forthwith.

Hmmm. They need to build something befitting and work on the traffic/Road network cos Abulegba is far. Nobody has time to be going there like central ikeja district.

Most, if not all of the state projects under Sanwo Olu hv been absolute crap! Buildings far inferior than those owned by even area boys and omo oniLEs; look at the shambles structures here, a waste of land angry a supposedly hub for high tech and communications come look like locally constructed abattoir or village for meat sellers! Shame on Nigerian polithief-cians!

Instead of you to drag our Eastern governors for not enticing our Lagos based business men with infrastructures that will enable them bring back home their businesses

Lagos state government na scam are the shops in ikeja not paying bills to the government



Mynd44:

Computer village cannot stay where it presently is. That place was not in any way designed to be a marlet. It is causing a strain on the community and no sane government will allow it.


The problem to me is the distance of the old site to the new site. It will make relocation difficult but the government had tried to move the "market" to Ikeja along but it didn't work. This time, they might have to be forceful else, we are on the way to watching drama unfold

look at the pictures of the prototype behind the image of sanwoolu on that sign board. that's the look when completed and not the Makeshift shops you're seeing in the pictures. Those shops are currently in use by the akube cloth sellers who would be relocated elsewhere upon completion of the modern ICT Market. That place seen in the pictures would be the site. Most of the structures have attained window level. I'd share more pictures later so you can see.

Human beings are just wicked naturally, distance is the barriers because Kantagowa is far ask from the people selling in that market if they come from another planets or they are all ghost, may be there are shoppers plying the market.

shock you! computer village can't stand Kantagowa market in term of population
