Hate will not kill you igbos.
To the well meaning Nigerians that think oh os only hate Fulani Hausa Yoruba you can see that Delta n Akwa ibom weren't spared in this clown bigoted criticism.

If I list abandoned project in Igboland I will still be listing till Jesus return but I rather not be consumed with endemic n irredeemable hate like the OP.

The Eko Atlantic you badmouth tomorrow igbos will claim the built it that is how despicable a pig the OP is.
I guess by now you must have been embarrassed with this your hasty,hate-filled comment.

Every state don't need an airport my dear.
I live in a very developed city yet no airport. Nearest one is about 34 miles away.

Unless you are flying outside the country, hop into train and you are at your destination within a twinkle of an eye and back so why do you need an airport.

Priority is what builds a nation not elephant projects.
Imagine dutse and ebonyi had airport. For what?

I think the op of that post was being sarcastic.

Atleast, that's how I understood the post

Eko Atlantic IS NOT A POLITICIAN OR GOVERNMENT PROJECT
You stated this whole narrative with a lie. This is Propaganda 101.
You have good intentions, but allowed propaganda to becloud your intentions.

The project is privately funded by South Energyx Nigeria Limited – the developers and city planners, a subsidiary of the Nigeria-based Chagoury Group of companies – working in strategic partnership with the Lagos State Government and supported by the Federal Government of Nigeria.

FlawlessKarl:


Where's the hate here, I am from Akwa Ibom, if truly the op is Igbo I must admit he's being objective, he includes white elephant projects also in the east. So you foolishly go and sit down. Stop being emotional and mentioning Akwa Ibom state in your ewedu mouth.

You people supporting Peter Obi are so dumb, I don't know the fetish y'all have for Lagos and Tinubu.

You wanted to mention the white elephant project in Lagos, you decided to write an article about it.

But, when it comes to other states you were just salient on them.

Don't you guys need to visit a psychiatrist?

For those who don't understand the meaning of white elephant.

It just simply means bojo boju. The more you look the less you see .

Of course they are beautiful oh so precious, but the purpose of building it is useless because it will eventually end up in ruins .

First on the list we start with bobo Chicago Dubai.

When you ask the Ronu nomenclatures what did Bola do in Lagos them go dey do erhmm ermmm.

OGA what did he do ? Erhmmmm but he build Eco Atlantic.

Now Eco Atlantic is a white elephant project.

To even start with it's not for the common man , middle class or what you classify as rich .

Only super rich.

To make you understand a rent in eco Atlantic for one of the semi building partially completed is more than 3 million for 1 bedroom flat.

Uncompleted building o.

So every project must be for the common man?
Stop posting rubbish.
You don't even know the history of why the project was embarked on in the first place. Go and read the history of ocean flooding in that area then come back for correction.

Kaduna Refinery.

Step 1: Locate refinery far inland, 850KM away from nearest oil producing area and lay 2,000KM of pipeline that will cause environmental devastation.

Step 2: Configure refinery not to specialise in Nigeria's Bonny Light crude.

Step 3: Profit!
