It is surprising how this well laid out town became the nauseating eyesore it is today. Go to 21 road till 1st Avenue. So, is it population expansion pressure or failure of the usual institutional maintainance culture as is the practice? This place is a FHA. Hence before an additional structure is added or distortion done therein within the property can't happen without govt permission. 24 Likes 2 Shares

Racoon:...Funny thing is that each od 36 state governors can build a better than FESTAC styled estate today. It takes a well laid out plan, strict adherence and some encouragement. Roads, power, water, security are easy. 31 Likes 3 Shares |

Racoon:When people migrate through night bus in large numbers there, why wouldn't that put pressure on the infrastructures there? They keep bringing brothers, sisters, aunties, uncles, cousins, niece, nephew to congest the infrastructures without also individually making effort to maintain the infrastructure but would blame government for there own selfish actions 31 Likes |

Someone said FESTAC '77 was actually the beginning of Nigeria's problems. It was a festival where all manner of witchcraft and diabolism was openly celebrated. Demonic spirits were summoned upon the land without care to send them back. A line can be drawn from 1977 to the present day. Nigeria was never going to remain the same. 5 Likes |

Racoon:Blame the decadence of Festac on successive administrations that neglected the area. They couldn’t sustain or improve on what Gowon and Obasanjo built. |

When the country was working, now they've turned it upside down. Back then when I was growing up we hardly had power failure. When light goes off at most 30minutes they've restored it.......But now we pay for darkness and also contribute money to buy electric pole and transformer. E nor go beta for the politicians wey don scatter Nigeria. 2 Likes |

What was Nigeria's population back then? A mere fraction of what it is now. What percentage of that population was living in abject poverty? A small percentage of a mere fraction of what we have now. With increase in poverty, comes de-gentrification and formation of slums. What happened to FESTAC Town is de-gentrification. 1 Like |

We happened to it. Na normal average people dey live for the estate not government or politicians. Various set of people who have lived in festac made festac an eyesore… keeping the environment dirty. Not applying fresh paints, littering anyhow, damages etc. Apportion blame to its rightly recipients, make government rest small. 4 Likes 1 Share |
