N223 Billion investment and good quality jobs for Nigerians is nothing to offer?

Upside mentality people like you wail about unemployment, but when you see money, jobs and employment, it's still nothing good and meaningless.

Sadism and poor man's mentality is bad and detrimental, you can not grow or progress with that kind of mentality..

We also have to thank ibos for underdeveloping their region at the expense of others. Also to thank them for being the poorest in Southern Nigeria. Special thanks to ibos being officially a 3rd class in their own country.


What a wonderful tribe!
Thanks to them ooo foolish people

Guy. The Southeast are the most ingenious tribe in Nigeria. Unlike the SW, they don't depend on the government to get things done in their region.
They are so intelligent. I did my youth service in Enugu and I was amazed by the level of intelligence displayed by those kids, no wonder the list of best scoring students in JAMB is usually dominated by Igbos.
Without the Igbos, Lagos would be nothing and without Lagos, Ogun State would be nothing. So you see? Ogun states ' impressive IGR is still somehow linked to the Igbos.
In fact, any SW state not directly bordered to Lagos is very poor. I once traveled to Osun and Ekiti for a project and I almost cried at the level of poverty seen in those places, no Igbo state is in that condition. I saw for myself why Ekiti is dubbed 'Nigeria's poorest state'.
Meanwhile Imo state in terms of GDP per capita will give any SW state a run for their money bar Lagos.
So next time you want to talk down on the South East, have a rethink. You are what you are today because of them.
Disclaimer: I'M NOT FROM THE SOUTHEAST.
You are proud of their stupidity abi weldon ooo

Do you know how many Nigerians that'll benefit in such mega project,? Some will buy houses, cars, land, set up businesses e.t.c those people are thinking above garri. Learn how to appreciate such huge projects

What's all this rubbish you wrote? Simple point is that Tinubu delivered one of the most iconic and most sought after address in the world. A laudable achievement in it's own right.

The USA bought into the project in a big way with their planned consulate at Eko Atlantic to be their biggest in the world.

Only Igbos are hating on that development and a hypocrite like you has nothing to say to that.

You only respond to Yorubas telling off your kinsmen for their despicable ways they shameless show here 24/7 without restraint or reservation. You're all jokers. All of you.

Your epistle still shows how dull and dense you are. Eko Atlantic is the only spacious area where US can build something to match the increase in the volume of applications they handle. Eko Atlantic is a private real estate initiative not due to the genius of Tinubu we know that it was bought and constructed by Chagoury construction. No igbo man is attacking but in the usual manipulative passive aggressive behaviour you resort to attacking igbos making jeers at them when they react tou accuse them of hate.
When igbos were applauding the Anambra airport envious guys like you started calling it a warehouse forgetting that the size of land there creates room for expansion just like other airports in the world how they started.
You and your fellow despicable Yorubas on this forum are the ones inciting igbo insults by jeering and mocking them thereby making them react. but let me tell you something you don't know. we attended a seminar some weeks organized by the same US on the future of tech and guess what they said that in the next few years investments will leave Lagos for states that get infrastructure right. Akwa Ibom is getting it right, Anambra is getting it right gradually and with Soludo they are right on track. i would remind you of this your statement when Soludo commissions a new project and you make a jeering remark against it.

Not true .Their funding doesn’t come from US government but from visa applications from Nigerians like you.Imagine more than $500m for single building raised without sweat you can imagine what other corporations and foreign businesses make daily in millions of dollars from Nigeria

Rubbish.

If 1 million Nigerians apply for some type of visa in a year, and each is charged $100, that amounts to 100 million dollars.
That means it'll take almost 6 years to finance such a project.

So, in your warped tribal and bigoted mind, America considered tribe and religion when they decided to invested N223 Billion to build their largest consulate in the world?

I bet if it was in your poor, backward, violent, hostile and intolerant village, it won't be about tribe or religion.

It's even sad that at your old, you ignorantly in one breath opined that development in Nigeria is irrelevant because Nigeria is not developed.

The question now is how do you develop without investments and world class development?

Do you not see how ignorant and contradictory you hateful and bitter Igbos sounds.

You're so ignorant. What's your 100usd visa fee, compared to what America gives our useless government annually in grants alone, running into millions of dollars? How many people have applied for visa between 2020 when covid-19 erupted and now? Even me, I no see appointment date just to renew my visa since last year. The embassy is always dry. Always think before you pass any comment next time because not everybody reasons like you.

Go and check the figures and get back to me.. just so you know, more than 100k people apply for visa to the US in Nigeria every year. Now do the maths

Guy, when you begin to see a conspiratorial angle to everything, it is time to check yourself.

The USA likely just saw Eko Atlantic as a nutural 'beauty spot' worth being the location of their biggest and most iconic consulate in the world.

You somehow turned something that simple into insults against "mumu people" who "dont value yourselves and your continent".

I wonder who is the mumu here.

It's not a conspiratorial theory it's a fact.

This building is a competition for influence in africa. China, USA, France turkey etc are all fighting for influence on the continent....China built AU head quarters in Addis for free....France I'd fighting for influence in mali. Both USA and France and allied bombed lybia to keep their influence. USA is bombing Somalia as we speak...m it'd not conspiracy I study politics.

1. USA is an extension of Britain because they colonized. There are 6 states in England called New England States.

2. Even Trump called Africa shithole. The average American disregards africa. Nigeria and many African countries are often called third world so what is the embassy doing there??

3. A consulate shoulr just be a consulate and shouldn't warrant this kind of investment...

4. USA is currently bombing Somalia and had bombed lybia in 2011 and predicted Nigeria will break up a couple of yrs ago.... so why are they building this edifice.

5. Usa is controlled by Britain. In fact, Americans are British and western European.

These aren't conspiracy theories these are facts....

Consulate is where they issue Visa, the head of a consulate office is called consul. The consul work is also to protect the interest of their citizens in a foreign country where they reside. They also carry out commercial activities between their country and the host country. There are some embassies that have their consulate office within the embassy. An embassy is a building where the Ambassador or Charge D'affaire of a foreign country operate from. Ambassador doesn't issue Visa. U can do more research on your own.
