JeetKuneDo:
Let's hope other states including LASG will learn from this instead of building drains with no covers, road dividers with dirty zebra colors, roads without proper street and traffic lights, roads without sidewalks , roads with no landscaping around.

Pretty sure some governors will be looking at all of these, but instead of attempting to emulate what they're seeing by attracting investors, they'll be busy looting the "federal allocation" handouts they're getting so that they too can buy their own Pearl Tower apartments.

Let me also remind "dem dem" that based on what I've heard from a reliable source, gala sellers won't be allowed there. Just giving y'all a heads up before you scream marginalization when your asses are deported

First of all, this is a privately funded project by the Chagoury group and many other investors. Even the LASG isn't involved in the funding. I've told you clowns several times that Lagos doesn't need any nonsense oil money. The state is choked with too many investors willing to invest due to her huge market and strategic location

Secondly, you're from potor republic. You should have added "palm" to it or "epo pupa" to make it easy for folks to understand what you meant. This is the oil they have in that part of the country. Please let's always endeavour to make things clear when posting. Thanks

Me too nko? I am facing the same issues.
The South West is by far the largest consumer market in Nigeria.
In Biafraland , who do I want to be selling okrika cloth and my pirated CD disks to? is it wawa or Imo people who are all average civil servants or Ebonyi people who are as poor as church rats?

What is Nnamdi and co planning to do to keep the more than 20 million Igbos youth that will be heading back to SE occupied? by then, the era of village rallies and shouting "Afonja" all over the street would have been long gone.

Chief Olorunimbe Ayenuyo from Igbotako in Ondo State, set up Mega Chicken chain of fast food restaurants about 11 years ago. His first outlet was in the Festac Town area of Lagos. Since then, he has added two additional outlets - one in Lekki close to VGC Ikota, with the other one in Agidingbi area of Ikeja. They serve a variety of Nigerian cuisine, with dishes that have been regarded by many of their customers as "tasty, well cooked and nicely spiced."

Techpaded:
Nowadays, only few people make international calls due to the presence of Over-the-top (OTT) plays like Whatsapp, Skype, Wechat, Facebook, Viber and IMO. This caused a global revenue loss of $386 billion, from 2012 to 2018 for the telecoms operators. Hence, MTN, Airtel, GLO and 9Mobile are lamenting, urging the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) to intervene and stop OTT services .

In opposition to this, I suggest that OTT plays should be left alone, because we users buy data from the Telcos to access services like WhatsApp, Skype, etc. While they are lamenting losses from voice/video calls, they are, on the other hand, jubilating from excess gains they make from data.

When Oladimeji Edwards founded Hyde Energy in 2012, he had a determination to create an energy company, with a difference. That difference is excellence. Today, Hyde Energy is a global oil and commodities trading company focused on the trading and marketing of oil, refined oil products, gas and renewable energy products in African and worldwide markets. They are also active in the sourcing and supply of metals, metal ores for global industrial customers.

https://www.hydeenergyltd.com/wp-content/themes/hyde-energy/img/dimeji-edwards.jpg

Their areas of operation cover trading of crude oil, Fuel oil, Dual purpose kerosene, Aviation turbo kerosene, Gasoil, Gasoline, Naphtha, Liquified petroleum gas (LPG), Liquid natural gas (LNG) etc. Hyde Energy, made the list of successful bidders for the 2017/2018 crude oil term contracts. The contract would run for one year effective January 1, 2017 and covers 32,000 barrels per day. The company launched another retail station as part of its' roll out, with the opening of its new Nyanya outlet along Abuja/Keffi Road, in Abuja.

https://www.hydeenergyltd.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/HYDE-ABUJA-024.jpg https://www.hydeenergyltd.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/MG_2595x.jpg https://www.hydeenergyltd.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/MG_3093.jpg

The company also recently acquired a 40 million litre capacity tank farm located in Calabar, South East Nigeria, when it announced the commissioning and commencement of full operations at Hyde Tanks and Terminals Limited, its' storage and terminal division. The commissioning was marked by the delivery of their first cargo of 5,000 metric tons of automated gas oil on board the MT Bluegreen Tigre.

The management of Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation also awarded Hyde Energy, an LPG term contract for Escravos LPG. Hyde Energy would be the off-taker/purchaser of the Escravos LPG-Mix. This award is a testament of the confidence the management of NNPC has in Hyde Energy.

Supported by established relationships with international financial institutions, and with offices in Lagos, Abuja and London, Hyde is well positioned to leverage local and regional knowledge in the structuring of supply solutions to world demands.

Whenever the list of Nigeria’s richest men is compiled, Kolapo Lawson’s name is usually left out. For those close to this unassuming billionaire, who read Economics at the famed London School of Economics, that omission is seen as unpardonable. Their reason: Lawson runs one of Nigeria’s biggest indigenous business conglomerates with interests in banking, real estate, manufacturing, food and beverages sector and with turnover in several billions.

[img]http://4.bp..com/-sdoYThvmQ9I/UeyCEyrEhWI/AAAAAAAABxY/qiJqDwk8oXQ/s320/Kolapo-Lawson-1405.jpg[/img] https://i.pinimg.com/736x/49/82/05/498205dc5a15820605051c2753d6dd3c--energy-drinks-classic.jpg

A brief rundown of his investments: He used to be the Chairman of the board of Ecobank Transnational, Togo (as he controls the largest individual stakes). He is also Chairman, Agbara Estates Limited, (arguably one of Nigeria’s biggest industrial and residential estates); Chairman of Vitamalt Nigeria Plc; CEO, Lawson Corporation - a trading and investment company (which was founded by his late father,) and also sits on the board of several business concerns. But like his father,the late Chief Adeyemi Lawson (who founded the Grail Movement in Nigeria), the younger Lawson avoids publicity like a plague. And his social life? Practically non-existent, to say the least! http://thenationonlineng.net/kolapo-lawson-the-unsung-nigerian-billionaire/

https://cdn.vanguardngr.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Abbey.jpg

On late Chief Adeyemi Lawson: "My father, who was only 26 or 27, won the election and became the youngest ever chairman of the Lagos City Council. Then in 1963 an opportunity came for him to go into business. He was advising a local brewing group, in their negotiations with the old Western Nigeria state government. He was asked to broker the deal. He succeeded in bringing the two parties together, but on the condition that he was the majority shareholder.

The deal was signed in 1962, and West African Breweries was opened in 1964. It was the first Nigerian-owned brewery in the country. He was thus the first Nigerian to establish a brewery. He just closed his legal practice and focused on the brewery.

We’re still running the brewery, but we no longer make alcoholic products, we make malt drinks called Isomalt, and we are into real estate, in a very big way. Again, my father started that line. Everybody thought he was mad, because he didn’t start by trying to construct a building, he started by trying to build a town!

We’ve been working on that for the last 25 years and we’ve managed to build this unique place called the Agbara Estate. It’s about 30 kilometres outside Lagos on 454 hectares of land. It’s so big that the work will continue for another 30 years.

We have the biggest, and best managed industrial estate in Nigeria, I would say. All the big manufacturers, Nestlé, Unilever, GlaxoSmithKline, Procter & Gamble, are there. The idea was to create an industrial environmental that brings employment. Once people are employed, you then have a demand for other things like housing, shops, social amenities and so on. http://africanbusinessmagazine.com/company-profile/ecobank/kolapo-lawson-thinking-big-comes-naturally/

Many folks know Chief Kayode Aderinokun the Lukotun Aje of Owu, as an accomplished writer, and former Chairman of the Association of Nigerian Authors. But not many people realise that he has his hands deep, in several corporate ventures. Today, he owns extensive interests in a gold mine. As one of the directors of Thor Exploration, Aderinokun has had over thirty-five years of accomplished business experience within Nigeria, before setting up the company. He currently serves as Chairman of First Marina Trust Limited, a leading financial services institution in Nigeria. He has led a number of initiatives, including the first commercial exploration program of the Segilola Gold Project. Aderinokun is also the founder & shareholder of Tropical Mines Limited and Segilola Resources Operating Limited. He brings invaluable in-country expertise to the board of Thor, through his significant experience gained in the mining and financial services sectors.

Nigeria's vast reserves of solid minerals including base metals, coal, gemstones, iron ore and industrial metals is still yet to be fully tapped. But Aderinokun's company Thor Exploration Limited, is out to take advantage of this fact, by drilling for solid minerals to boost not just its own wallet, but the economy of the nation. Thor Exploration Limited, is a mining company, with a focus on gold exploration projects, located in highly prospective, under-explored regions of West Africa. It was incorporated in Canada, to engage in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties located in Nigeria, Senegal and Burkina Faso.

The company has been granted a mining license that covers 17.2km2, as well as an exploration license over 27.0km2 of mineral deposits, which allows it to carry out mining and exploration activities over a huge stretch of land. In their quest for solid minerals, they literally struck a goldmine, as they discovered extensive gold minerals, as well quartzite and quartz-mica schist to the east, of their exploration field, and gneissic rocks to the west.

The entire area was therefore renamed - the Segilola Gold field. It is located in Ilesha, and the mineral belt is said to extend for over 400 kilometres. The company is determined to conduct further prospecting activities, in order to unearth the vast riches beneath the Ilesha soil. Thor’s Flagship Project which is the Segilola Gold Project, was acquired by the company in August 2016. It is considered Nigeria’s most advanced gold project, with an indicated resource of 555,000 ounces grading at 3.8g/t.

On the board of Thor Exploration, is the dynamic Olusegun Lawson, the company's Managing Director and CEO, who has led all of Thor’s acquisitions and financings, including its' most recent one - the acquisition of the Segilola Gold Project and Thor’s JV with Acacia Mining. Segun Lawson has a Bachelor of Science degree from the Royal School of Mines at Imperial College (UK) with Honours in Geology, as well as an MBA from Cass Business School. He has had extensive transaction experience in oil and gas corporate financing, and also gained experience at Premier Oil, in spotting and negotiating new West African opportunities. Lawson is currently a director of Argento Exploration (UK) Limited, as well as a co-founder of African Star Resources, which was sold a few years back, for over $3.5 million USD.

Another director of the company is Folorunso “Folli” Dada Adeoye who is the co - founder and President of Superior Petroleum Limited, a downstream oil and gas company. He also co - founded Pacific Merchant Bank Limited in 1989, which subsequently merged into Unity Bank Plc, one of the leading banks in the country. He has served as Special Adviser to the Osun State Government on development matters.

Adeoye's twenty-five years involvement in the Nigerian mining sector, where he co - founded Pineridge Nigeria Limited to execute technical and financial projects in joint ventures with the Nigerian Mining Corporation, is quite visible. Adeoye's work includes pioneering modern standards in gold exploration in Nigeria, with Tropical Mines Limited, the original indigenous owners of the Segilola Gold Project.

The Segilola Gold Project comprises a proposed open-pit gold mining project based on an indicated mineral resource defined by a comprehensive drilling program including 157 drill holes totalling over 12,200 metres to define 555,000 ounces of gold at an average grade of 3.8 grams per tonne (at a cut-off grade of one gram per tonne Au and applying a top cut of 50 grams per tonne Au). The resources estimate was carried out by Odessa Resources Pty. Ltd, an independent geological and resource consultancy based in Western Australia, according to National Instrument 43-101 guidelines. An NI 43-101 technical report titled, "Updated resource estimate for the Segilola gold deposit, Osun state, Nigeria, for Thor Explorations," dated Feb. 25, 2016, has been filed by the company on SEDAR.

Segilola Gold Project is considered the most-advanced gold project in Nigeria. Project has significant exploration upside potential and near-term production potential. A private placement of $4,647,864 closed (total raised for acquisition and working capital is $5,054,976 over the last two private placements) so that initial work program can be financed.

The three remaining non-executive directors of Thor Exploration, are Dr. Julian Barnes - a specialist consultant, and Adrian Coates. The 3rd is James Philip, a former banker with Standard Chartered Bank, who has a broad range of skills in international advisory, and financing transactions across Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

The Segilola Gold Project is located in the crystalline basement complex rocks of southwestern Nigeria within one of the main "schist belts" known as the Ilesha Schist Belt. At Segilola, gold mineralisation is localised within structural "compartments" defined by the intersection of two main controlling features: a westerly-dipping footwall calc-silicate suite of rocks and sub-vertical shear zones.

Drilling results to date have confirmed: (a) the southerly plunge of the main footwall lode;
(b) high grade hanging wall mineralisation, often with visible gold, located 10-15m west of the footwall lode;
The hanging wall lodes are characterised by discrete and distinctive pegmatitic quartz veins and the abundance of visible gold.
