Eko Atlantic city

Atlantic Heights

Atlantis Heights is located in a tranquil corner piece of the Downtown District of Eko Atlantic City. It is a home to look forward to after a busy day. Just a block away from the Marina Boulevard, you can be guaranteed of the rest you desire. Atlantis Heights is a 75-apartment twin tower of 25-storey. The tower will stand majestically into the skyline of Eko Atlantic City.

The twin towers should be around 110- 115 meters.

Eko Pearl Towers.

The Eko Pearl Towers consists of a set of five residential towers in Eko Atlantic City. The Black pearl, White pearl, Champagne pearl, Indigo pearl and Aqua pearl.

Eko Black Pearl completed
The Black Pearl residential tower is a 24-floor apartment building, standing at 113 m (371 ft).[8] The tower contains 120 apartments, which range in size from 1 to 6 bedrooms, with Duplex options and two exquisite Penthouses and Pool Villas. The Eko Black Pearl Tower which was topped out in 2016 is currently the tallest residential building in Nigeria. Also being constructed at present is the much taller Indigo Pearl which is a 33 floor (approximately 150 metres) residential tower with similar attributes to the Black Pearl. Both towers are situated behind two tennis courts, a swimming pool and other communal facilities. There are also parking available in all the towers at the ground level and basement levels.

Eko White Pearl
The White Pearl tower consists of 30 residential floors at a height of approximately 135 m (443 ft) and benefits from the common garden terrace at the top of the podium and has a private health club and a meeting room and lounge at the garden floor level. The White Pearl Tower has a two level podium which has a lobby and garden terrace above. The ground floor level incorporates a private health club, meeting room and a luxurious lounge. 24 levels will be accessible by 6 Mitsubishi elevators. It is approximately 100–110 metres in height.

Eko Champagne Pearl
The Champagne Pearl tower consists of 30 residential floors; there are 4 apartments per floor, a technical floor, a ground floor and a basement floor. Approximately 135 meters (443ft)

Eko Indigo Pearl Almost completed
The Indigo Pearl tower consists of 33 residential floors at a height of approximately 150 m (492 ft).

Eko Aqua Pearl
The Aqua Pearl tower consists of 24 residential floors. Approximately 110 meters.

Hehehehe! You know I will always do homework well before coming to make a statement.

Britam is the height and it also has an antennae or sphire.

Nigeria is also building 74 stories skyscraper and 60 stories skyscraper in Abuja and Abeokuta.

Apart from that we have 170 - 200 meters above projects on the pipeline or under construction.

Le Rêve Tower

Le Rêve Tower is composed of 40 luxurious penthouse apartments; each consisting of 700 square meters, designed with an extravagant living space opening unto a wide balcony with stunning views.

I don't know the height but I suppose it should be around 150 - 180 meters

The government of Senator Ibikunle Amosun has also undertaken a comprehensive overhaul of the education sector from primary to tertiary levels with emphasis on the provision of infrastructure and the development of science and technology as well as training and retraining of teachers as the bedrock of learning.
Today, in Ogun state, education is free from primary to secondary level with the provisions of essential materials such as school uniforms , sandals, school bags, and text books to students without a single dime paid by them. Government is also rehabilitating and upgrading some of the schools in dilapidated condition. Government is also building 20 new model secondary schools with boarding facilities across the state from scratch and the schools will be fully equipped with science laboratories and modern facilities required in the 21st century learning. Also, in the last three and a half years, Amosun government has been paying WAEC and NECO fees for all students in public schools across the state.

The government of Amosun is providing free medical treatment for children, pregnant women and aged people in the state. All existing health facilities in the state have been made functional for effective medical care to our people. Drugs and modern equipment are being provided in almost all the hospitals in the state.

One can appreciate the modest effort of government to revive the lost glory of agriculture which was once the mainstay of the Nigerian economy. The government established a policy framework to revive agriculture by making it more attractive to young graduates. The moribund farm settlements are being revived to make them functional. Farmers are being encouraged to form co-operatives in order to attract loans from government. Improved seedlings are also distributed to farmers free. Many youths are now going into agriculture through the modest effort of the state government and this has reduced unemployment in the state. grin

http://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2015/03/09/ibikunle-amosun-on-a-mission-to-rebuild/

Lagos, Ogun, Osun, Imo etc are providing free education primary to secondary school level though Imo gives until University level. grin

omofunaab:
Lol this question plenty oooo.

He hasn't finished building those secondary schools they are 20 one in each local government but three are ready and the one at akinale along lagos road has commenced academic session

Work hasn't started yet on the rail but the commissioner said very soon, the terminus will be at panseke in abeokuta .

I don't know much about the airport project though.

And the claims that amosun is concentrating more on abeokuta, that's true but he's trying in ijebu ode too but most of his projects there are not needed by the people over there like they don't like his flyovers over there.

Abeokuta is the capital hence it needs more attention, roads in abeokuta are okay except for federal roads, amosun embarked on some federal roads and couldn't complete it when there was no money again, Ofcourse politicians will blame it on the rain


Work is going on that 60 storey skyscraper, it's projected to be the largest in Africa if completed. .they work everyday on it, you know when the workers wanted amosun to pay their cooperatives deduction, they demanded that work be stopped on that skycrapper so they could be paid.

And also work is about to commence on abeokuta mall at the new abeokuta city centre in the oke ilewo business axis.

AMOSUN'S problem is a case of misplaced priorities, like the 60 billion ten lane expansion he wants to do from ibara in abeokuta down to sagamu interchange.. .he has commenced demolition, that road is a federal government road and it's not as if the road is bad... The road already itself is six lane.
Hehehehe! Thanks

Are those schools built from the scratch? Do you have any picture of the renders?

Where is the one located in Ikenne local government?

Will he finish them before his tenure expires?

Where are the routes of the railway?

The guy is not following OGD projects else the terminus would have been at the centre of the state which happens to be Iperu. Anyway, make we dey wait for the railway or metro rail.

Is it mono rail or metro rail?

Are you serious about the 60 story skyscraper? shocked grin

Waoh! I am really excited that he has started the project. This guy seems to be a silent worker. grin
Have they finished piling?
Can you please post the pictures of the site to ascertain the level of development? grin You can open a thread on that?

Waoh! Two shopping malls in Ogun State. grin I think Ogun State needs more. grin

What other projects are expected at the Abeokuta city centre apart from the 60 story skyscraper and the shopping mall?

Amosun should focus on renewal of urban areas in Ogun State. There should be an urban master plan for Abeokuta, Ijebu ode, Shagamu, Ota, Agbara(I think it is a planned community), Iperu, Ode etc and transportation to Lagos.


If truly he has plans for other places apart from Abeokuta, Shagamu - Ogere road should have been his priority but I think he is obsessed with developing Abeokuta.


The next election will not be easy for his party in the Ijebu and Remo axies.

Sorry for too much questions. I am just curious. grin

Thanks

Yes a shoprite is currently being constructed in oke ilewo business zone of abeokuta, opposite iwe iroyin house.. To be honest amosun did well in road construction in abeokuta metropolis and he did some federal roads too except for ago ika -adatan federal road which he left untouched but i heard he is doing palliative on it now.

Amosun biggest problem is distraction, jumping upandan creating enemies for himself, going to every state to campaign.

Another problem of amosun is "how to spend "
When you have roads like you mentioned not yet completed then you embarked on another one at the rate of 60 billion. .he needs to finish that Akute road. .and ogun needs rail system that can transport people and goods from abeokuta to Lagos in less than two hours.

People should reside in ogun, oyo, osun,ondo,ekiti ,Lagos and work wherever they want to and only a good rail project will make this happen..

I expect all south west states to benefit from lagos economy, we need to expand lagos economy so states like ogun, oyo, osun etc can benefit. This is the kind of meeting i expect south West governors to be holding and not how to form one stupid alliance for 2019.

Recently amosun bought SUV for all grade B kings at the rate of 26 million each.. .that's another misplaced priority, if you are telling the workers to exercise patience that we are in a recession why can't royal fathers also exercise much more patience. This shows amosun is distracted with 2019 and doing all his best to solidify his grip on ogun hence the reckless spending.

But thankGod for the good news yesterday because if we criticize and they heed, we must talk about it..
Amosun paid six months cooperatives deduction yesterday and also arears of pensions and gratuities, he has also paid December salary.

But as a good citizen of the state, I know amosun can still do better than what he's doing and he should stop comparing himself with other non performing states..
I heard Amosun development is only focused on Abeokuta. Is it true?

What is going on with the railway system? Is there anything on ground or is it another Elephant project?

What about the Cargo airport in Iperu? Has he abandoned it for the one he is proposing to build in Abeokuta? Has he started the airport in Abeokuta?

Is he still building the 63 stories in Abeokuta?

What is happening to the CBD in Abeokuta?

What is happening to the new Makun city project?

Has he finished building all the new secondary schools?

How is Abeokuta now?

Sorry for asking to much questions. grin

Aba is a well planned city than Onitsha but the infrastructures are left to decay. Nevertheless, the current government is showing signs of dedication to aggressively address the issues of bad roads and drainage by rigorously constructing world class roads in areas that the former governors never touched.

If we co-host with Ghana, the Ghanaians may even agree to Naija holding both semifinals and the final because Nigeria is a much bigger country cheesy

If Nigeria were to go it alone, I'll add Calabar, Abeokuta, and Jos.

Lagos will have two venues. Like you said, the National stadium could be demolished, and in its place, a 75,000 seater football-specific stadium could be built (whose capacity can be reduced to 40k after the WC). The other Lagos venue would be the proposed stadium to be built in Lekki by private developers, which can have a 30k capacity.

Bear in mind that FIFA may likely expand the World Cup to 40 teams, so that might lead to a reduction in the minimum stadium capacity required to host the event.
Of course, if we are to co-host with Ghana, the final must be played in Nigeria. grin


If we are to co-host with Ghana, cities like Abuja, Lagos, P/H, Calabar, Enugu, Kano, Ibadan and Uyo must be considered ahead of other cities because they have better amenities and facilities than other cities. Then, Accra, Kumasi and Cape coast will be considered for Ghana.

But if we have to go alone, Jos, Abeokuta and Kaduna/Kastina/Warri/Owerri should be considered. grin


Are you serious about that proposed Lekki stadium? shocked grin I just saw the render but no article about it.

If we go by what you are saying about the expansion of teams which could lead to the reduction of minimum stadium capacity then it's a game for us to do it alone. grin

The money FG has spent shoring up V.I from the ocean is more than enough to start a new state. If FG hands FCT to Niger state today, they cannot claim to have built it. Lagos was built by the federal government, not tinubu or fashola's skill.
What is the use of spending money and leaving it to rot?

That was what the FG did to Lagos, They left it to rot but Tinubu brought Lagos State out of the ruins and made it what it is today.

Besides, which money is FG spending to shore up VI? Is FG the one sandfilling Eko Atlantic city?

Some parts of Lagos was built by FG but definitely not Ikeja, Maryland, Anthony, Ilupeju, Lekki, Ikorodu, Badagry, Banana Island Ikoyi, Eko Atlantic city etc. Those places where built by the Western region government, individuals and Current Lagos State government. grin

Any where FG put money like Lagos state will compete with it. The cost of third mainland bridge alone is more than
every penny the FG has invested in Ekiti, Osun, Ebonyi and Imo put together.

FG built 2 airports, 3 seaports, Ikoyi, Ikeja GRA, Victoria Island, flyovers, schools, hospitals, all embassies, many estates, stadiums, all govt agency HQs, all ministry HQs, thousands of kilometers of roads, hotels, national theater etc. Any state with a quarter of such investment will compete easily with lagos.
Point of correction, FG didn't not build Ikeja GRA, all embassies, many estate, all stadiums, all roads, all government agencies, all hotels etc they were either built by the Western region government, individuals and foreigners.

Should Nigeria and Ghana bid to co-host the 2026 World Cup? If so, our competition would be the US, Mexico and/or South American countries. FIFA has already barred European and Asian nations from bidding.

Host cities could be:
Ghana - Accra, Kumasi, Cape coast, Tamale

Nigeria - Abuja, Lagos, PH, Uyo, Enugu, Kano, Ibadan, and Warri.

The opening match would be held in Accra, while the final will be in Lagos.
Round of 32 venues would be in every stadium
Round of 16 games would take place in Ghana (Accra, Cape Coast, Kumasi, Tamale); Nigeria (Lagos, Enugu, PH, Kano)
Quarter finals may be in Ghana (Kumasi, Tamale) and Nigeria (Uyo, Abuja)
The semis could be in Accra and Abuja

Is it feasible? cheesy
Considering the huge sum of money the government has invested and is about to, on infrastructures recently. Especially, the constructions and renovations of 5 international airports and few local airports, Construction of new airport in Lekki Lagos, constructions of standard gauge railway across the country, building of new dams, Construction of Mono rails in Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt and Calabar etc I expected the government to use this opportunity to host big events like the world cup or the Olympics to showcase our development to the world and recoup the funds extended in these investments but.......


However, I think if we succeed in executing these projects or at least prove to FIFA that we are committed to these projects, we will have only few areas to address which are the stadiums.


To host the world cup we need 12 stadiums with at least 40,000 seating capacity for the group stages to the quarter finals, at least 60,000 for the Semi-finals and 80,000 capacity for the final.


But we only have one 60,000 capacity stadium in Abuja and two above 40,000 capacity in Jos (44,000) and Lagos(45,000).

Though the National stadium Lagos has been abandoned for 12 years, It can be reconstructed or renovated to have 80,000 capacity.

Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium is 38,000 capacity while Muhammadu Dikko stadium Kastina, MKO Abiola stadium Abeokuta and Tesilim Balogun stadium Lagos are 35,000 capacity.

Good cities like Calabar, Kano and Kaduna only have stadiums with 16,000 while Enugu and Ibadan has stadiums with the capacity of 22,000 and 25,000 respectively.

Akwa Ibom stadium seating capacity is just 30,000 and I think it can be adjusted to 40,000.

What this means is that we have to build at least 5 stadiums in those 5 good cities, upgrade Lagos, Uyo, Port Harcourt stadiums to 80,000 and 40,000 and renovate Jos, Abuja and Tesilim Balogun stadiums to international standards.

The remaining one stadium can be chosen from Abeokuta, Kastina or Warri grin provided they are able to fulfill the other criteria like standard of hotels, transportation and security.

If we want to do it together with Ghana, I don't think it is a bad idea. But Ghana only has two stadiums with 40,000 capacity in Accra and Kumasi. Meaning they have to build 2 or 3 new stadiums. grin

We will be contending with Canada if we want to host the world cup. shocked grin

I think this is a welcome development.

But the sport minister we have no get vision. grin

If Anambra government can make the state attractive and welcoming to university graduates in terms of making policies that will encourage investors to build companies and therefore employ people, Anambrarians, most especially the graduates would stay more at home and will top Lagos in just a matter of years. lagos isn't that much ahead of Anambra.
Hehehehe!

Lagos is far far far far far far far far far far far far far far ahead of Anambra for now. grin
