Why bring tribe into the equation, these guys moved to Lagos to thirve, they saw a market demand for a service they provided it, they paid taxes to the local authority in the state, provided employmenty and business opportunities there what is wrong with that.

The Land in question was acquired in 2006, If the state authorities informed him that there was a plan for a coastal highway there he would not have made the purchase. Its sad how you guys reduce everything to tribe, did BAT know he would be a president in 2006? Even if he nursed the ambition did he know he will win?

The relocation wave is surging with intensity. Landmark Group has boldly uprooted and shifted its entire operations. One can only hope that the dominant Niger Delta-owned banks and oil giants will seize the moment, relocating their headquarters—or at least a significant part of their operations—to Port Harcourt. Failure to act now risks leaving the region vulnerable to the next toxic chapter of political neglect and economic marginalization as the proverbial cock crows its timely warning.


Due to numerous inquiries in the thread.PH was part an parcel of the Eastern region. PH was originally developed to evacuate coal from Enugu. PH was originally called Igweocha.

They are absolutely losing their minds over a business that coughs up N10 Billion per year in taxes relocating to PH . Imagine the chaos if bigger players like Access Bank, UBA, Zenith Bank, Seplat, Nextoil, or even the Zinox Group decide to pack up and leave too. Lagos is living on borrowed time, and the clock is ticking.

Word on the street is that even Dangote is fed up with Lagos’ endless drama. Rumor has it he’s planning to move his main HQ to Abuja and rent out his Lagos office once it’s finished. If that happens, expect BUA to follow suit, and Lagos will finally settle into the role everyone’s been envisioning: the economic hub of Yoruba land and little more.

Did I read that landmark contributed 10bn in taxes to the govt in 2024? If this is true, then it is also most likely true that the total investment was actually in the region of $30m.

nwirinedu:
You forget to mention that the inaugurant mentioned BAT as the president of Ghana. Hmm even the bullion owns Ghana too.

kettykin:
See wretch with his poverty induced mentality. If 5 of such companies move from Lagos to Abuja then that the end of Lagos as a commercial hub

Paraman:
I dont want to believe you're high by this time of the day

kedeojo:
You should know that is a big lie. Someone who call different figures as the worth of his beach. Who take does people serious. They over hype things. How much will the renowned Eko hotel will now pay to Lagos government.

Umuinyioku:
Ok.

But I am telling you the truth about your people.

nwirinedu:
It is what he said o, that bulldozers came to the property to demolish it, that he wasnt even given time to pack his things, that there were guests in the hotel.

Someone whose business was wrecked and demolished relocated to PH and you are here talking about hatred and foolishness?

SmartPolician:
Oga Paul, charity begins at home. Expand your business to your region. Hospitality business is thriving in Imo State.

Why not create an artificial lake in Owerri and build a tourist centre in your home state? You invest your money elsewhere, a government comes and ruins everything.

Update
Some people suggested Oguta lake, but I mentioned artificial lake to do something unique like Jabi Lake in Abuja.

COMPAQ:
Story. Good luck finding sufficient people in PH that can afford the facilities. We just think it's about siting stuff somewhere. We forget people have to be able to pay for stuff. Landmark PH won't survive on people just coming to look at the beach and buying bottled water. That's why they went into partnership with the state government. If he's confident in it's financial liability , he should go to alone.

Judolisco:
Since when did rivers state become East... Arbi my eyes dey pain me? Seun your moderators, no dey read again oh... Dem jst dey push everything come frontpage

Ezmans:
joke aside, how many minutes do you think it will take someone from rivers to imo?

proeast:
Oguta is best and potentially most lucrative. He should be wise except Rivers state government would be investing in his project, otherwise it's still potentially risky but better than toxic Lagos.

Anyone who is still investing in Lagos with all the bigotry and hate the bastard of iragbiji has entrenched, will have himself to blame.

They believe Lagos has arrived and thus they can mess with investors assets recklessly. But all it takes is awareness and people being intentional in staying away.

Real estate sector has already taken a hit there and that's why slums are appearing everywhere in Lagos.

lapintoz:
This is where your ignorance comes to fore.

Compare and contrast the GDP value added of Landmark recreation centre and the Lagos Calabar coastal road to our economy and tell us your conclusion.

Before, Landmark, we had the bar beach, Tarkwa Bay, Oniru Beach, Lekki Beach, Alfa Beach....all supporting vibrant SME businesses and are no more......has the GDP of lagos state deteriorate because of this?

That's why I like Reno, he knows how to make the obi.goats look very stupid in their wrapped innuendos.

professorPABX:
As usual, about 90% of people on political issues on nairaland are usually from within the same circle arguing in support and indirectly in support of the topics but pretend to be against the topic, at the end, they are saying the same thing having wasted time for hours to deceive and confuse themselves the more.

This is one of the reasons some elites said we cannot leave internet commentaries to depressed, selfish and propaganda people, otherwise, they will confuse our youths. During Abacha Era , I was living in Abuja, at the then Church Village (no longer in existence), Our leader, an IBO man said there is nothing in Lagos again. He said Lagos is just like any City in Nigeria. By then, they abandoned Lagos. All the infrastructures abandoned. They gave ultimatum to all Embassies to leave Lagos. They gave ultimatum to Banks to relocate their Head Offices to Abuja and Oil companies to where they have operations. They said they will dredge River Benue and Niger to Atlantic Ocean and move Lagos Port to Lokoja and many things. I will stop here for now.

POWERELEC NIGERIA 2025 is taking place there from nextweek Monday. They should use this information on nairaland to inform POWERELEC NIGERIA 2025 ORGANIZERS that POWERELEC NIGERIA 2026 is taking place at Landmark Centre Portharcourt.

ABACHA tried it but he died in the process. Lagos is a Spiritual City but exploited, cheated and maligned by NIGERIA. The Eternal Order of the Cherubim and Seraphim Church established by Saint Moses Orimolade Tunolase in 1925 was having meetings with Angels at the Lagos Beach for years. In the Heavens and Marine Kingdoms, Lagos is one of the Cities recognized. Not all the towns and Cities in the world are recognized in Heavens and in the Marine Kingdoms. The Solomon’s Seal which is a symbol of Israeli Flag (Triangles) stands for Triangular Forces – The Sun, The Moon and Star which controls everything. The Triangular Foces is established in Lagos. Lagos has Three International Boundaries RECOGNIZED in Heavens and Marine Kingdoms which are Land , Sea and Air. In the Lagos Markets, daily, you find people from different countries and planets and Marine Kingdoms interacting.

They came to Lagos with nothing and became Millionaires and Billionaires, yet speak evil of Lagos. Even the Accra Ghana they run to, they never realized that the Native Accra people Migrated from IFE.

If Jonathan had gotten the opportunity of second term and started Lagos Calabar Coastal Railway in 2016 we would not have gotten this kind of propaganda. Somebody reminded me Jonathan would have started the Coastal Railway Project from Calabar and not Lagos because the 8 years of Yaradua Jonathan government never had any project started or completed in South West but Yoruba kept quiet. This man cannot selfishly and singlehandedly frustrate the Protection of Victoria Island and the entire Lagos Island. The construction of Great Lagos Wall (2) to protect the area from Atlantic Ocean attack, Atlantic City Phase 2, Coastal Road and other benefits cannot be left to chance this time around

What GDP are you clinging to? Lagos is an economic graveyard. Telecommunications companies are bleeding to death. Manufacturing is are going with unsold inventory climbing to the roof, with breweries and pharmaceuticals rotting away. The aviation sector is on life support—only four airlines left, and even Tinubu’s First Nation couldn’t survive the carnage. Banks are staring into the abyss, one step from collapse. Malls, supermarkets, and eateries are gasping for air, crushed by diesel costs. Hotels? Reduced to desperate short-let hustles to stay afloat.

The city is dying, and apart from the Lekki axis, the rest of Lagos is an economic wasteland crawling toward oblivion.
Ask those in bariga. Ogba, iyana oworo, iyana oba, Abule egba , ikeja, gbagada, Anthony axis.


The only flicker of economic life in Lagos is in the Lekki axis—everything else is crumbling into ruin.

Paraman:
When will you relocate to Anambra, Imo, Abia, Ebonyi or Enugu from Lagos? Nobody send you and your wailing, Lagos no need your tears.

Augustenite:
Going to school is a waste of money for those that trained you. No sense at all.

Maybe you can tell them pack out of Lagos and now see who will loose.

Sometimes, you Igbos should always think before coming to social medias to show how ignorant and stupid you can be. Maybe you can tell those that are Igbo extractions to move out of Lagos and go back to East.

Always trying to sound sensible whereas, no iota of sense. I pray you don't effect your children with this your low IQ brain. It's just like you telling Elon Musk to move out of US and move to Russia. Business wise, is there sense in that?

GetSenseNow:
You guys are daft. You're busy trolling the Igbos but you don't know this relocation is just 1 from several in the coming years.
Dangote wants to shift base to Abuja too. I'm sure other investors will follow suit too.
What happened to Warri will be the fate of Lagos
