The cable, named Olaudah Equiano, a Nigerian-born writer and abolitionist, is among the first in a series of landings in Africa for the subsea cable and is expected to run from Portugal along Africa’s west coast to South Africa.

He's an Igbo slave

Jagaban wey God give good aura to bless Lagos go bless Nigeria. Lagos just dey shine and become more prosperous. God I thank u for Google and APC o.

Which jagajaga are you talking about,if Nigeria had utilized her resources,foreigners will be trooping in mass to see a master piece of architecture...

Stop celebrating mediocrity,its you right to enjoy basic amenities,from those you elected to serve you,so stop making it look like an office holder is doing the people or citizens a favour by building infrastructure.

Igbos are the least tribalistic of all Nigerian tribe. See how the igbo woman brought it to Lagos instead of the SE.

Equiano, the name of the slave boy during the trans Atlantic slave trade? What is wrong with google? What kind of demeaning name is that? And Africans are celebrating? African men, Tuehhh? See as the white man dey take una play Kalo kalo. No wonder they are flogging you guys with horse whip at their border. Wish I had a horse whip to flog you guys too. Lolz.

Na wa o, Is it possible that the name was given to immortalize and honor this slave? Considering naming this technology, which will make a significant impact in the lives of the people, as demeaning may be stretching the race card too far beyond reason. For example, my direct ancestors were not slaves but there is nothing significant tied to their names asides from memories, and when we start having children, our children may not even know that they existed at some point.

I think the name given to the fiber was on a positive note and look forward to how lives in that area will change. For example, a new settlement can be setup close to this Data Center and people get to work remotely from that location. Imagine earning dollars and enjoying City life in the remote part of lagos.

Why does your Jagaban or cabalban goes to UK for medical treatment? I thought Lagos is already a mega city better than London?

Lagos is the place GOOGLE (not the Igbo woman) chose because it is the place that makes most sense.

Besides. SE has no coastline for the cable to land.

Even if it does, UN-GUN-KNOWN-MEN fit cut am with cutlass.

Immortalize and honor a slave? WTH is wrong with you? The cable is for your second enslavement. They are just letting you know ahead of time.

I'm sorry you only picked the past of what Equiano represented. So you didn't see how he redeemed himself and became successful? Equiano symbolizes determination to become your best and not remain what your captors intended you to be.

By the Way, Equiano wasn't his past as a slaveboy but his new name after success.

Since you went through all this trouble just to praise your lord and savior thief Tinubu, you forgot to educate the uninitiated to the effect that Olaudah Equiano alias Gustavo Vassa was not a Nigerian. He was an Igboman born in Igboland in 1745. There was no Nigeria in 1745.

I thought I'd bring your intentional amnesia back to your attention Mr revisionist.

Oga, the name is meant to demean Africans. Stop romanticizing rubbish. Open your eyes before they stack you guys naked and in chains again bound for Europe, the path of the Equiano sea cable. Lolz.

Can you guys ever think critically? Olaudah Ekwuano is a symbol of resilience, hope and grass to grace. I don't know the kind of education some of you attained in Nigeria. Very unfortunate generation.

Here we go again with this yeye talk that Jagaban made Lagos what it is. That's a bollocks lie, Lagos is what it is because of Nigeria. Lagos success is hinged upon Nigeria and not the other way around. If Tinubu never was the governor of Lagos, Lagos will still be what it is. Commercial capital city of the country is a product of a governor's technical know-how, it's the endless contribution of Nigeria's population that makes Lagos what it is
