Lagos attracts $250 million investment for new industrial, residential development


• Grants 2,366 building approvals within a year
• Unfolds plans to meet 40% food need

Lagos State government yesterday said that it had attracted investment worth $250 million for its new industrial residential development aimed at boosting economic activities and jobs.

The state’s Commissioner for Commerce, Industry and Co-operatives, Dr. Lola Akande, disclosed this at the year 2020 ministerial press briefing to commemorate Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s administration, saying that the total value of the 24 companies within the zone is estimated to be $250 million.

“The companies will engage about 2,050 employees in the first phase of their operations.”

Akande said that the Alaro city project, located at Epe on a 2,000 hectare piece of land, is a public-private partnership and mixed industrial-residential development where the Lagos State government owns 40 per cent as land equity while Messrs Rendeavour, Africa’s largest estate developer, owns 60 per cent.


The commissioner, who also disclosed that the investment in the Lekki Free Trade Zone Development Company had been yielding result as $30 million goods were exported in the last 12 months while 19 new companies are at various stages of deployment, said that the state government, through the ministry, remains committed to the establishment of the Fashion Hub and Academy on a 10-hectare land Enterprise Zone at Gberigbe in Ikorodu.

In another development, the state government has adopted electronic means of monitoring the built environment and approval methods to enhance ease of doing business in the sector.

Commissioner for Physical Planning and Urban Development, Dr. Idris Salako, disclosed this yesterday during the briefing.

Salako, who said the measure would boost physical planning services and instil public confidence, which had led to granting of 2,366 building approvals in the last one year, highlighted the reforms to include inauguration of an ombudsman in the form of the Lagos State Physical Planning and Building Control Appeals Committee that will, among others, address petitions on contraventions of the urban development laws and passage of a new regulation.

He said that the reforms were already assisting in the delivery of the mandate of the ministry, especially the issuance of planning permits, carrying out regulatory and other activities.


Also, the state government yesterday disclosed that its integrated rice mill at Imota was at 80 per cent completion level, and that it would create over 250,000 direct and indirect jobs when it becomes operational.

It also unfolded various agricultural projects that could shore up its food production status to achieve sustainable food security in its efforts to provide food for over 24 million people in the state.

The state’s Commissioner for Agriculture, Gbolahan Lawal and Special Adviser to the Governor on Agriculture, Abisola Olusayan, disclosed this in Lagos while rendering the account of activities of the ministry within the last one year to commemorate the first year anniversary of the Sanwo-Olu-led administration.

They said that these agricultural projects would ultimately shore up the food security status of the state from its current 18 to 40 per cent.

Lawal noted that the present situation of food security in the state had been especially impacted by the lessons learnt from the coronavirus pandemic, a situation that has made deliberate efforts and policy formulation on the part of the government imperative.

Haaa! Another bomb!

Your Ile kewu grammar funny scatter!

Go back to school boy and stop disgracing your generation online.


I'm tired of engaging a nincompoop like you.

I'm giving you free Education that they failed to give you in where ever you crawled out from.

AhoadaRivers:
E pain am!

Ogbeni you no go school.

So it is numb skull orangutan like you that don't know the meaning of "says" that is educated?

AhoadaRivers:
Where did you learn English? Ile kewu arabic grammar school, Oshogbo?

You just prove you are very stupid, go and check your dictionary if you don't know the meaning of "says".

Someone that need to go back to school asking someone that is better than him where he schooled, typical Osu from Osuland.

AhoadaRivers:
@ bolded, 'I used my teeth to divide frogmeat for children but I don't eat frogmeat'....

I know you can't decode my parable because of you in eweduland are not very bright in the head.

Says by a dull Nyamirin from Osuland

AhoadaRivers:
Chest-beating yoruba gorilla deceiving himself as usual.

If yoruba are that powerful, why couldn't they make Awo president and how come yorubaland is still under fulani control in Kwara?

You think we are in your Baba alamu newspaper stand in ajangbadi where jobless yorubas gather to tell themselves make-me-happy tales every morning. Dey deceive una self.

Who told you kwara is under Fulani control?


It is only Ilorin in kwara that the afonja history took place but then even the king have Yoruba blood and the Governor of kwara is still a Yoruba man.

You keep crying about kwara state but it seem you have forgotten that Anambra Governor is an Igala man and how Igala people colonized and enslaved Igbo even Igala people still live on the land they took from Igbo enslaved forefathers.

eduj:
sis you talk true. Adesina is an asset to Nigeria and must be protected by Our country,but it doesn't take away from the fact that if he happened to come from another ethnic group in the south, this thread would be overrun by Yoruba's loud condemnation and glee(example ,air peace vs USA, innoson vs gtb, Ngozi iwela vs the lagos-ibadan media) .
Those pals just want all goodies to themselves. Good luck to Adesina

How many Yorubas do you see crying for your support on this thread?

Would your support make him innocent if he is found guilty?

Nobody need the support of Nyamirin, Nothing will happen to Adesina if he is innocent of all the allegations

Justiceleague1:
Correct. Adeshina is a clean fine gentleman. We all should rally round him and protect him. This is how it should be.

But we know if it were an Igbo man,we know how you and your people would've condemned him already! We know how you people will call for him to go clear himself!

We know how you people condemned air peace boss,Onyeama, when he had a fathom allegation laid against him!

You in particular,I know how vocal you were against that Igbo official that had issues with his PhD Cotonou University program!!!!

Same thing you would have done if Adeshina was Igbo,God knows.


May God see him thru.

Who is crying for your support?

Nobody need the support of any Nyamirin

Your support won't take him anywhere.

oluwaahmed:
The same way these ones constitute nuisance in my region

Keep deceiving yourself lol

stanluiz:
Okija shrine is a village diety shrine. It is not a ritual shrine.

You hardly hear of any ritual news in SE,ss,nc or other part of Nigeria except sW.

Your brown roof region is the ritual capital of West Africa. Ritual killings is now a culture is the South West.

Lol look at this one trying to twist Okija narrative.

If South West is the ritual capital then South East must be the kidnappers capital. Your Potopoto region is the kidnappers capital


Ritual Killing is now a culture in South West but your generation all over South West are still with their heads.

AregbeFufu:
You don't see igbos carrying propaganda everywhere.
Changing black to white.
And you really can't compare the proportion of hideous crimes in the west to that of the east.
By the way, it is also afonjas harvesting body parts in the East.

Lol I guess IPOB are no longer Igbo, because Propaganda is what the "P" in IPOB stand for

Go and check the names of Arrested ritualist in South East and see if they are Afonjas, I guess Okija shrine was also found in Ogun state, what about South East kidnappers? No hideous crime in South East indeed

AregbeFufu:
The same Ogun that has $10bn IGR.
6% poverty rate.
$200bn GDP..
Is that the same Ogun ...
The only thing afonja knows is how to use media and propaganda to paint their Ewedu republic as heaven.
Posting fake statistics everywhere whereas hunger is killing. Look at how they just put up a call and contacted a contractor that instantly assured them of delivery.
Very soon afonjas will be advertising body parts delivery services on jiji app

So because people commit crimes in the state it means every other positive things from the state must be false?

I guess there is no ritualist in South East or people don't commit crimes in South East.

What make South East kidnappers different from Ogun ritualists?

Your generation are all over that region but I wonder why they haven't mine their skull yet, if ritual is so rampant in South West like you guys make it seem all Igbo would have stop coming to South West.

stanluiz:
Which generation Continue to decieve your self.

Skulland republic region of South West.
Land of horror.

The same land of horror your generation won't stop trooping to and cry whenever they threaten you with Lagoon.


I guess there is no longer ritualist in South East and they no longer commit crime in South East.

Don't worry very soon crime news from South East will hit front page, continue to masturbate on this thread

FuckDaMods:
Don't mind my brave but stupid igbo brothers, until their heads are mined before they will learn their lesson.

What is this one saying? Talking as if there is no ritualist in South East or they don't commit crime in South East.

I guess Okija shrine was In Ogun state.

You guys are just senseless trolls, this thing happen all over Nigeria

stanluiz:
Troop to the land of skull miners and human part dealers. Godforbid!!

Keep deceiving yourself, your generation are all over that region but I wonder why they haven't mine their skull yet.

NORSYK:
That's the only business that thrives in that region

But your generation won't stop trooping to that region to push wheelbarrow and hawk puff puff

[quote author=gregyboy post=89718250][/quote]Lol Ada Ogun that is part of Yoruba culture is what you claim is Benin lol

Do you even know the way Benin king use to dress with beads was how Yoruba kings used to dress in the past?



Read this thread on Nairaland

ernieboy:
oga which history did u study in school? at what time was Benin ever a colony of yoruba, infact apart from the old oyo empire, the yoruba never even has a strong empire that was capable of holding vasal states. the eradication of history from school curriculum by obj has really affected many of you.

Yoruba never has a strong empire but I guess dahomey kingdom was part of Hausa empire.

Benin was a Yoruba Colony

gregyboy:
We gave the title oba to yorubas when our oba led military conquest to yoruba areas since 1400
During the time of oba ewuare


Ww are researching if truly Oronmiyan really cane to beninas you said but no evidence not evem from the oyo son book history of yoruba writing by Samuel johson in 1897 samuel johson wrote that oromiyan never visited benin


I teied to also find writing record from European in benin on benin-ife relationships but there Was no mention...


Oba title is indigenous


Oba eweka of benin told the story if it's origin to ife for political reasons just the way your oba stole the title oba to raise the yoruba monarchial prestige to the world

Benin was a Yoruba Colony go and read your history again

Igbosmoker:
I don't know why some yorubas are so obsess and want Benins to claim yoruba as cousin.

You claim oduduwa fell from heaven, some even claim he trekked from middle East to ile ife, you don't see benins trying to persuade you people out of your myth stories.

Even oba of Lagos can attest to it, there's the king in ondo that claim he's from Benin, there are many king's in South West that claim Benin origin and they all have our symbol of authority but you'll never see a Benin king claiming he's Yoruba

No Yoruba is obsessed with Benin and want Benin for anything, we are more than enough but it is just annoying when you guys peddle falsehood online.

You will never see a Benin king claiming Yoruba when Benin king is actually a Yoruba man lol, keep deceiving yourselves

temptnow:
But the South South that have been feeding you ungrateful people nkor

Why are you in severe pain?

TheGreatFinesse:
Only one rice Mill in the whole useless region

So why are you in so much pain?

The same useless region your generation won't stop trooping to and cry marginalization whenever they threaten to chase away your parasitic ass

agadez007:
Geddifock outta here

look for an Oyo or Osun man,You are not worthy of my reply

Keep this kinda practice among Igbo

agadez007:
Do states need to share borders before they influence each other??
This one is not even a pure Ekiti man,Ekiti and Ondo states are a mixture of Yoruba and Edo people

What do you think the Ado in Ado Ekiti means

We don't do that pure or fake shit, you guys do in Igbo Land to refer to yourselves in Yoruba Land.

You are really very stupid assuming it was really true Edo influenced Ekiti and they named a place in Ekiti, what does it prove?


Britain influenced Nigeria. We adopted their language and they also named us, does that means we are no longer Nigerians?

Igala people also influenced Igbo In Anambra, even Edo people influenced Igbo in Onitsha does that means they are no longer Igbo or they are fake Igbo ? Go and buy sense

agadez007:
Its even somebody from Ekiti talking
Pass the Device to an Oyo person,That's the real Yoruba people,Ekiti is mixed with Edo blood

We don't have fake or real Yoruba like Igbo have fakes or real Igbo, all Yoruba are real Yoruba

Sammy07:
Going by their logic
He said
Oba means shining and is an etymology word.

While it means King.

Why is it that Only in interpreting their Oba as a title (Omo'oba n'oba....) it means Shining

While Interpreting Oba in some of their names
means King.

While Obaseki doesn't mean King or shining.


Like I don't go to school? that they'll be twisting my head with lies.

Or I wasn't educated

Please leave them and let them claim whatever they like or else you will just be stressing yourself, goodnight

Maliqcious:
please name the supreme kings in yorubaland apart from formal benin colonies in Yorubaland that Uses the title Oba. Please non-benin Oba is never a yoruba name it was borrowed from the Yorubas. You can tell from benin names. Periodt

Which Benin Colony are you talking about when Benin itself was a Yoruba Colony?

Sammy07:
I told you the guy no go school.

In onisha.
They call it like this.

The Obi of Onisha, Igwe so so so.

In Yoruba
They call it like this.
Alaafin of Oyo, Oba so so so.


Why didn't he say Obi of onisha should be addressed like.

The Obi of onisha, Obi Vincent Emeka

Or they should say.
The Igwe of Onisha, Igwe Vicent emeka

Honestly I don't like arguing with them same as many Yoruba because they will make it seem like you are the one trying desperately to associate with them where as we really don't give a f.uck.

The best thing is to leave them to claim whatever they like, "Oba" that a five years old know it meaning in Yoruba is what they claimed Yoruba stole from them.

gregyboy:
... Wetin you dey talk guy....

You dey talk nonsense


What does title represent



The benin oba title is

Omo n oba nedo ukwakpolopolo ewuare no gidigan (full title)


In short form he is called omo n oba or oba

You are the one talking nonsense. Everyone know "Oba" is a Yoruba word

You said name like "Ooni of Ife, Alaafin of Oyo, Owa of Obokun, Alake of Egbaland" etc are the real names of kings in Yoruba Land but they are just titles like that of Benin you called "Omo n Oba nedo"

The only difference is that Yoruba usually call out their kings with their titles in any publication. "Oba" means King in Yoruba but we call out our kings with their titles.
