turmacs: This one una just dey see snakes everywhere. They be looking like all these possessed Nigerian men boys... Any guy above 23 years old, who doesn't have a car, a house/Landed properties, and at least 100M in his account is a possessed failure, those sets of guys wine and dine with marine spirits.
DID YORUBA TELL YOU THEY ARE NOT PLENTY IN FESTAC?
THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU WILL BE IN OGUN STATE AND BE TALKING ABOUT PLACES YOU DONT KNOW.
ASIDE THE ISLANDS, ON THE MAINALAND, FESTAC, SATELLITE TOWN ARE RIGHT UP THERE WITH THE BEST.
YOU CAN ACTUALLY WALK CONTIINOUSLY ON PEDESTRIAN WALK WAY FOR 2 TO 5HOURS NONSTOP IN FESTAC FROM POINT A TO B. CLOSED UNDERGROUND DRAINAGE FOR MORE THAN HALF THE AREA, SO U MAY NOT SEE OPEN GUTTERS.
SOME OF US WERE RAISED WITHOUT OPEN GUTTERS IN SIGHT.
IT IS RARE IN NIGERIA AND LAGOS, WHERE PEOPLE SHARE ROAD WITH CARS AND OPEN GUTTERS EVERYWHERE.
THIS IS THE BENEFIT OF URBAN PLANNING AND MANY HERE WERE BORN AND RAISED THERE.
82man: Igbos don destroy festa to akpo village or to Igbo ukwu village 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
U KNOW WHEN U SAY IGBO, I WISH IT WAS ONLY IGBO THERE.
I GUESS EDO, URHOBO, IJAW, CALABA, BENUE, KOGI AND YORUBAS ARE IGBO TO U RIGHT OR U THINK FESTAC IS YOUR VILLAGE WHERE YOU ERECT YOUR BROWN ROOF MUD HUTS WITHIN INCHES OF EACH OTHER?
onuman: All one could see are rustic houses and dusty roads. Soviet era apartments that were demolished after the fall of the Berlin Wall in the mid 1980s.
The developers are leaving gradually.
WE ARE LEAVING SAY, YOU BUY ROD OR BLOCK OR BE LAND OWNER.
FESTAC WAS COMPLETELY UNINHABITED AND A SWAMP.
U SEE GREED, IT WILL BE YOUR UNDOING.
ORDINARY COASTAL ROAD, TINUBU HAD TO STEAL MANDATE TO BUILD WITH OUR MONEY.

A STUPID MAN WILL BE SHOUTING DEVELOPERS ARE LEAVING.
AT THE SAMETIME CONDEMNING NNAMDI KANU AND FIGHTING BIAFRA.
The design involved centralised services which created single points of failure. Great in other places but not NG.
Indiscriminate flouting of the master plan. All sorts of buildings sprouting up
Lack of community ownership - look at those flats.
Festac is the metaphor what happens when people are free to do what they like. A cautionary tale for all those who believe in freedom over law.
I can tell you that if festac falls into state hands, there will be gnashing of teeth but long term recovery. Otherwise let Festac fall into the hands of a Wike or Tokunbo Wahab type person.
Personal happiness ends where it brings discomfort to my neighbour.
It's not about being predominantly igbo, it's about it being populated by a sample set of reckless Nigerians. Even if another tribe was there, I doubt there would any difference.
Festac inhabitants have not done well at all.
LET ME POLITELY COUNTER WHAT YOU WROTE HERE.
THE PEOPLE IN NIGERIA ARE TO PROVIDE A SOURCE OF INCOME, SINCE THE GOVERNMENT IS NOT CREATING JOBS.
ANYBODY CRITICISNG THE EFFORT OF THE POOR IS A VAMPIRE, JUDGING THAT THE PENALTY FOR STEALING IS MOB BURNING.
SECONDLY, THE GOVERNMENT DONT HAVE MONEY TO BUILD, THE PEOPLE HAVE BUILT AFTER GOING TO THE SAME FEDERAL GOV FOR APPROVAL.
NOW, TO COME BACK AND DESTROY THE PEOPLE EFFORT TO KEEP LIFE GOING, WILL BE NOTHING SHORT OF GOVERNMENT RASCALITY.
RESPET THE EFFORT OF THE PEOPLE AND STOP USING STATE MONEY OF THE PEOPLE TO DESTROY STRUCTURES DULY ERECTED BY THE PEOPLE PRIVATE MONEY.
GOVERNMENT IS NOT FOREVER, WHEN WE GO CALL U TO ANSWER DEY COME.
raskymonojendor: Festac used to be multicultural. Guess the people that live in festac nowadays after they hijacked it. The tribe starts with an I and ends with O. They invaded the town and messed it up.
Before and after below 👇
U TURN EVERYTHING TRIBAL.
U WERE BORN IN OGUN STATE AND LIVE IN OGUN STATE.
U KNOW NOTHING ABOUT FESTAC.
ASK BEREM NICELY TO EDUCATE U.
TILL TODAY, ALL TRIBES LIVE IN FESTAC, THOUGH STILL VERY EXPENSIVE.
DONT LET THE BAD FEDERAL ROAD FOOL YOU, IT CAN BE FIXED, THE BLOCKS BUILDINGS CAN BE PAINTED AND STREET LIGHTING TURNED BACK ON.
THE TAPS CAN STILL RUN AND EVERYTHING RESTORED WITHIN 24MONTHS MAX.
FOR THOSE OF YOU BRAIN WASHED BY AGBADO, AS U CAN SEE TINUBU DID NOT BUILD LAGOS.
WHAT YOU ARE VIEWING THERE IN ITS GLORY DAYS WAS EQUIVALENT TO LiVING ANYWHERE IN THE WESTERN WORLD IN TERMS OF INFRASTRUCTURE, ORGANISATION AND URBAN PLANNING.
PEOPLE WERE BORN AND RAISED THERE A LONG TIME AGO, WHEN TINUBU WAS STILL A DRUG DEALER.
Beremx: Festac Town has lost its glory. Bad roads and shops everywhere. Almost all ground floor of block of flats have been converted to business centres. Duplexes are not left out in the madness. The last time Festac Town had a good serenity of environment was in the early 2000s.
I miss the town though cos I was born and bred there.
Omoawoke: Call a spade a spade, Jonathan was a failure. He started the pace of backward Nigeria. Jonathan ran a very corrupt government and looting was the order of the day. Sowore has protested against every form of oppression, injustice and corruption. Same way be protested for Obi when he was governor and was among those fighting for him. Stop hating everyone that goes against your messiah
