Rossniti is always very optimistic. We need guys like that around.

My problem with Eko Atlantic is where are the Africans, Nigerians and Lagosians that can afford to live there?

They are selling Lagos to the highest bidders and you guys are happy.

Pity.

Do you know how many foreigners that own properties in London?

Foreign investment is good for any economy.

UnbanEbenezar:
have you ever heard of the term"relapse"?
That's one issue with sai baba zombies, they are neither here nor there.
today they repent, tomorrow they backslide and go back to their vomit.
Better not take them serious
sarrki was an example

ok
let me be watching him

Sonyboom:
Swear that you are not Igbo ?
I know you are cos this isn't the first time am seeing your comment on NL but I will patiently wait for you to deny your tribe before telling what I observed about you and your tribesmen.

Easy kid.

Do not generalize a tribe under one behaviour. Deviants are in all the tribes. even in yours.

Let's always act and speak as grown ups, not little kids.

marsman:
ask me this question when it is completed, condemning it at this stage is a total waste of time.

When will it be completed? Do u have any idea? If it's a waste of time for u to answer d question I asked, isn't it a waste of time for u to have claimed that eko Atlantic can be compared with Dubai?

so beautiful �

DexterousOne:

Well
That COULD be the case
Some Nigerians will be able to afford this
That's not in doubt
International buyers could come in as well

And what would be wrong with that? Is it not same in all cosmpolitan mega cities of the world like London, New York, Paris etal?

His name is tunde
And he is NOT Igbo

What does this even have to do with ethnicity now?
Many of you just lack common sense and critical reasoning

Is this how we are going to be giant of africa, and fulfill our full potentials?
By being irredeemably tribalistic to the point that it blocks common sense and proper reasoning ?

What's wrong with many of you ?
Different people will have different opinions
And it is not determined by their ethnic affiliations

Its their personal point of view
You black negros better start having sense
Or else

Nothing wrong with that

Did you read in any of my comments that this is wrong ?

OP is simply a champion and likely a winner in life with big ambition and drive unlike the many pathetic losers here who don't understand that winning at life begins with a positive outlook and mindset.

Per your point in bold, I don't agree. Many football clubs in the UK have been bought by foreigners. Some of the most prestigious properties in the UK are owed by foreigners.Even whole streets in the most prestigious part of London are owned by foreigners. Chinese, Russians, Ukrainians, Arabs and even Nigerians.


We are not in 1930. The world is now a global business and village with private cash able to do what it wants.

If I use my own cash to build luxury apartments in Nigeria, why should I discriminate in favour of Nigerians when that means I lose money waiting for them to purchase my units? I am not a charity neither are most property developers and private investors.

There are many schemes less wealthy Lagosians can buy into and not everything in Lagos has to be about 'affordability'. I can't afford to buy at Eko Atlantic now but I don't envy those, foreigners or Nigerians, who can because I am working hard to be able to buy there as it will be an iconic address of immense value I can pass on to my kids.

Most modern cosmpolitan cities must cater for all levels of wealth and personal circumstances in keeping with the spirit of cosmopolitan living which esssentially means all sorts of different people sharing geographical space productively. Lagos will not and cannot be a clannish or discriminatory enclave where it is okay to hate those who are wealthy.

bro next time always use simple English .. you have to consider some of us no sabi big big English .. I didn’t grab all your points but I understand you were trying to school the guy that It is not a must for the place to be affordable to all Lagosians..

After Biafra is restored, we will show you guys how to build cities. Zoo is a joke.

" We will show we will show " while poverty and corruption dey strangle south east.
Jealousy go kill you

Lol. Apologies bro. I dey my Obiahagbon mode today. Yes the part in bold is correct.

Great thread Op -@rossniti. It's going happen in our lifetime/s!

They are never do well poverty stricken souls.

Leave them with their foolishness.

rossniti:


He doesn't want to see the prototype.

That will only make him more miserable.

You have to understand that these people really do not wish to see development in their fatherland.

Because if there is development, they will have no one else to blame for their laziness and failure in life.

You need to understand their psychology.

AchalugoNwa:
ok let me be watching him

I no even Sabi am sef, who him be? the likes of them sai baba and tribalist crew I guess

Which construction companies are working there?

Exactly...

That's interesting.

This is massive and beautiful.. but I doubt if it can compare with Dubai o the reason is Dubai too is constructing mega projects so by the time Eko Atlantic completes, Dubai would have been ‘heaven on earth ‘.. but I very much agree that Eko Atlantic can be beautiful like Dubai of 2020 not Dubai of 20 years to come..



That being said


I don’t think this should be about competition. These projects will attract investors and it will really boost economy of Lagos and Nigeria at at large.. we no Dey compete , we just need good life.



Btw, can we have this kinda of project in Ibadan ?

The only country that will build 1 storey building in the midst of Shanties and still have the effrontery to broadcast to the world. Tufiakwa!

Ndi uchu...

Appreciate excellence mister. Everything isn’t my Mercedes is bigger than yours.

Nigerians are some of the most un optimistic and hateful people in the world, how can you be complaining about a project that will make Nigeria the financial hub of Africa, and attract billions of dollars worth of FDI, you assume that only rich people can buy into it, but the developers have set land aside for affordable apartment housing, but instead of checking you lament, there most always be a problem for most Nigerians, shouldn’t there, go and watch YouTube and see what other Africans think of Nigeria, saying wow what a beautiful country, they have such good leaders I wish we had a city like this, these roads are so good etc. But nigerians cannot even appreciate what they have, some of you deserve bad leadership, because whenever you do get good leadership you look for the worst parts of it, oh they have paved 50 000km of roads but there’s still 1000km unsaved what kind of nonsense is this, that’s the kind of mindset that people on this thread have, and it needs to change you cannot have a good Nigeria or a good country with bad people, the people make the country and generally on a day to day basis most people on this thread do the exact same things as the politicians they complain about


Lagos will become a financial hub in the world because of Eko Atlantic, Nigeria would be the skyscraper capital of Africa because of this project, over 400 000 jobs would be created because of this project, thank you rossniti for opening this thread.

See people comparing just a small fragment of Lagos with a whole Dubai, na wa oo

beautiful city, Nigeria will be great

In as much that we as Nigerians are happy with the massive strides of Eko Atlantic. It is impossible to compare to Dubai, because it is a modern standard of development. It is about 4000km of natural land and therefore will be cheaper to rent or lease. We all know Eko Atlantic is sand filled making it more expensive. Even having private individuals build it will take ages. But as we know it is not how far but how well. We all know that after this, the govereof Lagos will control the city and we know Nigerian government is full of criminals.

Check the blue print it is on the thread, i have seen it, that is what i know that it can be compared to the likes of Dubai, but those condemning it from just seeing the uncompleted structures and cannot see beyond there nose, should get the hell.out.

The ijaws and some other niger delta tribes with crude oil can not dream big like the Lagosian.

I feel SORRY for the NIGER DELTA NATION.

WITH HUGE CRUDE OIL MONEY and they are blaming the north for their woe.

What did your JONATHANIAN did with power when he was President for close to 6 years.

He was only after PEACE PEACE while the ijaw man in Burutu, Bomadi was drinking dirty water from the river around his vicinity.

NIGER DELTA should shine their eyes.

candidtalk:


What exactly are you saying? The rich should put there own private desires aside and build Nigeria for you?

I can't stand people like you. One thing to hate government neglect of infrastructure but you fall into the class of irredeemable and hateful loser when you start begrudging the wealthy for their cash that allows them to live in high brow areas.
This is not even unique to Nigeria as same obtains worldwide.

Developers build and wealthy folks buy. Simple. Anyone who is working to better their existence and be successful will never hate the rich. They are not the cause of your problem. Face your government.

If you have accepted failure and have no plans to be rich or successful then don't be a hater of those who are. You will never see God's mercy or blessings with that mindset.

It's government money, sir. I appreciate your insulting comments. Thanks a great deal. There is something similar in Abuja: Centenary City. These exclusive zones are touted as public - private partnerships, but it's really taxpayer funds they are using.
By the way, I am glad you are not the regulator of God's mercies.

Please stop comparing this shit with Dubai, even baniyas square Diera we know as the filthiest, the ghetto of Dubai is not as backward as these, few skyline is making unah head flops , dubai this Dubai that but make unah do like them develop unah country unah go say nah looting unah prefer
