My Lord and my God, do not forget me this 2016.
I shall get an asset here before the year counts down. Amen

I still say this idea is crap since:

- it all results in more congestion and pollution to Lagos
- the prices just means the likelihood of a real estate bubble increases
- more pressure on the roads for the rest of us
- didn't they hear of global warming? The last thing you want is houses and water tables right next to a rising ocean

But what do I know?

and it's only yorubas that will be employed. Same story yet poverty is having free hand in most south west states. What south east has conquer years ago. We are learned people yet Imo state still produce more professors than any south west state.

****

They term White Businesses seeking tax free haven as progress.



Let me ask you people one question abeg, will companies moving into that island pay a penny tax?


Do yorubas own the building on that Island?


Did yorubas pay for or Build the structures?


Yet i keep hearing yoruba on this thread.

I agree with the poster, yoruba has nothing to do with Eko Atlanti, it is purely a British, US and Dutch venture.


They are indeed building a tax free haven.

anonimi:
Very nice.
Will the workers come from schools like this or....

Thats what you miss. The price of land is minute and inconsequential to government compared to opportunities.

These guys constructing won't bring foreigners to build, they will employ people locally. Those construction workers will eat, commute, buy recharge card, pay taxes and that way, a lot of jobs are created and wealth is spread.

When theu companies start, they will employ Nigerians. They are creating jobs, they will pay tax, a lot of them will endorse entertainers, some will sponsor events like sports and upcoming sportsmen and women.

They will set up manufacturing plants and employ people and even if they dont export, we reduce what we import hence making the economy better.

This is not about land or who owns most of the property but the fact that those who buy and build will be adding value to the local economy

You just wait,

Water will return to collect Wats rightfully his.

Sharmeenator:
[s]Oga you don't need to turn this into a tribal struggle now. We should celebrate the fact that this is being done in our great nation and in the black continent irrespective of affiliations. It doesn't matter on whose land it's being developed on. I desire to see this type of development in all zones of this nation and Africa at large as a true black man. I wonder why we press the tribalism button whenener an issue arises or developmental progress happens in a zone. Can't we just be happy with ourselves for once?
To whosoever would quote to attack me , I am a full blooded Yoruba man.

Altho I'm yoruba, this project has adverse effects later cos the water would still reclaim d land back due to the gradually increasing hydrostatic pressure unless there is an outlet (which must be big enough). But an outlet channel for water ain't feasible since it is water from the ocean.
