It's definitely world class, and even better because it's in Africa!! ❤Eko Atlantic ❤azuri towers. We look forward to better projects
Certainly better than anything constructed using indigenous materials and skills. However Eko Atlantic it is beginning to look like a ‘white elephant’ in the same way as the ongoing palms and failed ‘World’ development in Dubai.

Eko Atlantic is not elephant project.
It take time to reclaim land and it take time to make the land settle before construction.
Currently, construction of different department is going on.
@@Southernview3k … I can see you know nothing about land reclamation and find the failure of Eko Atlantic hard to swallow … land settling, sand, really … do you not think they carried out compaction during the reclamation work … you can also watch the resulting erosion and silting occur further down the coastline as predicted in the marine studies! 😂😂😂
(Wait to watch it wash into the sea like ‘The World’ in Dubai)
@@andyxox4168
Your negative thought about Eko Atlantic will be your portion.
Enemy of progress.
Go bad mouth your country.
@@Southernview3k (I see you deleted your silly little comment but I shall leave my reply anyway) .. no need, in my own country we have running water, sewerage, drains and constant electrical power so if we waste money on the occasional white elephant, frankly we can afford it!
After participating in the Nigerian Power Industry and watching from the inside for 12 years I know there’s a lot to laugh about in Nigerian infrastructure, power plants with no gas, no distribution network and don’t even look at the distribution … Eko Atlantic will go the same way, massive waste of money to make a few politicians and big men rich … 😂😂😂
I want to see this city develop so fast. It breaks my heart rn that it isn’t that fast. The belief makes the difference. Maybe groundscrapers may be an option if the plan can be readjusted? What do I know? Or if one of these multinationals or banks may have its office space in the city would set a trend where most people would have to move their offices to the city. At the end I’m eagerly waiting to see this city mature.
Eko Atlantic is a smart city being built on reclaimed land from the ocean using reable malleable materials in a time where global warming is a massive issue. These malleable materials take 10-15 years to fully settle. Any widespread massive contruction until then will likely result in both an ecological & infastructurial disaster. They've been contruction around the edge of Lagos proper. There also still touching some of the power grid & sewage system in the meantime.
@@shangothunder1055 overprice property
@@bukenamara7666 For you perhaps.
@@shangothunder1055 if average rich American didnot have money to buy overprice project is only poor people who think that rich people are fool to buy overprice project
@@bukenamara7666 Stop embarrassing yourself.
Am definitely going to buy some apartments.
👍
I was there in April 2021. I hang around with some friends. It's was okay
I'm from the US, and though I love what you all are doing here, I really wish you all would take a good $5-25 million of these dollars and invest in Makoko!
Those people don't want much. They don't even want to leave mostly. just build them a community that you all don't have to be ashamed of seeing. Rebuild everything they have which is a shell or skeletal housing with walls and a roof, and let it be an African form of Venice without the high end price tag and expensive stuff. It could still be worth touring as long as it's clean, but those folk deserve better!
You don't understand the politics of makoko....makoko is a gold mine for corrupt NGOs and Community Leaders they get grants from left right and centre gaining from the filth.bottom line is THEY WON'T LEAVE.
Former Governor Fashola who was ruthless in developing Lagos dared to move them to badagry(another area of Lagos) to no avail....THEY WONT LEAVE.
@@jideonifade9916 I don't want them to leave either. Why should they have to? My only desire which I initially wrote about is, redoing their civilization, to create better homes and better schools and churches. To give their Community a facelift since that's where they choose to live.
Absolutely not. I don't wish for them to move either, but I want it to look and be better.
@@IamJesusWalks
No, the land they occupied belong to government.
Government need to move them to different affordable housing unit.
Makoko should be use for something more profitable to the country.
In US if you build a house in a lagoon, the building inspectors, and the city will smash it down the next day, infact you will need a building permit to even get started, it only happened in Lagos because the city was negligent.
I concur! Outright!
But if you must know, the Lagos state government was dragged to court on multiple occasions ( and it lost) by the Makoko residents who fought their evictions to make way for real estate!
I do believe Makoko would be revisited !
It has to be!
It is an eyesore beyond belief!
The government has to build low cost housing on a grand scale to facilitate a relocation away from that filthy slums!
Another truth is the people are not indigenous to the area, about 90% of the people are from faraway places outside the city and even the country.
Yes, indeed unscrupulous local“landlords” in the area are actually exploiting the people by knowingly building even more below par dwellings and making money for themselves!
How do people move into these towers while heavy construction is still on going?
I say we rugged die for Naija!!
People have not move yet.
They only use one apartment to advertise the project.
It looks like ecko Atlantic is not developing what is going on ?

Stop talking about subjects you know little to nothing about.
@@shangothunder1055 Who are you to tell someone what to talk about.??
If what you are saying is true. That information Should be available online for people who might be interested in the project.
Try to think before you attack people only to defend your pride.
@@Patrick-uu4xx
It is available online D...a.s If you would have took the time to do proper research before commenting on a topic you no nothing about I wouldn't be exposing your ignorance now.
@@shangothunder1055 i asked a normal question. But the way you answer is almost like you are ashamed.
Thats not even towers nor skycrapers,just regular buildings,towers is looks like twin towers of new york
Rome wasn't built in a day, but Dubai was built in only 6 years. This project was too ambitious to start with and should've been on a smaller scale
Ambitious? Depends on who you speak to. I wouldn't say its Ambitious. I suspect the project doesn't have many investors who want to invest in the project due to the Nigerian government. This project is the kind of financial investment that a lot of international investors would be interested in. Dubai was a risky project that took up to 15 years and both the rulers of Dubai and the investors were on the same page. Not so in Nigeria, the Nigerian government and its behaviour are the reasons why investors are not rushing to pour money into the project.
@@oluapampa5075 are you seriously saying this? Dubai is an enclave of no other interests. If the FG builds a new city in Lagos, what would Enugu people say? Una don start. Bro if you have money, go buy a land there and build.
FYI, Dubai people built Dubai. Nigerians are to build Nigeria period.
Finally, I believe the people building this city right now have put faith and matched dreams with actions and they deserve all the commendations due them. Whatever you can do to encourage them, please do so that when this is completed, those white people and black Americans who believe black people live on trees and huts would see this and we would be proud knowing quite well that we built this for us.
@@JustThinkingAboutIt thanks for putting this out there. Most of the critics already feel it is a government feat.
@@JustThinkingAboutIt I'm quite aware that the project is private and has nothing to do with the Nigerian government. However its location is still in Nigeria. And right now the current Nigerian government's reputation for human rights abuses and it lack of transparency scares international investors away. Investors want stability, not a situation where the investment could be affected by political and financial upheaval.
@@JustThinkingAboutIt The fact that a so-called democratically elected government acted like an autocrat and banned twitter simply because they removed a message from the president, which they believed was highly inflammatory. How does that look to foreign investors? Or the crackdown last year on SARS protesters. It affects projects like EKO Atlantic. No matter how exciting that project is. To give your an example. A recent project in the UK - Wembley City neighbourhood situated around the Wembley Stadium in London, is a good example of how much trust and confidence foreign investors have in a government that they will pour billions of pounds into an abandoned area that once occupied warehouses and offices. And turn it a new neighbourhood complete with hotel , shopping complex,cinema, restaurants, housing, student accommodation, all within a ten year period. A project that was first dreamt up just 19 years ago. The slow pace of construction at Eko Atlantic is down to the Nigerian government and its erratic behaviour that affect private projects like EKO Atlantic.
they have been building this city since 2007.. the project still looks empty
That's a false information Sir. Kindly get your facts right.
Kind Regards
@@emaema834 what part of it is false. It was projected to be complete this by 2021 or so? I remember being excited about this project in 2007. It literally looks the same. It’s been over 13 years
@@emaema834 I can show you videos from 07 and you can compare it to now. The videos are still on TH-cam. Just type eko Atlantic 2007..
Sir,
With due respect, piling started sometime around 2014 or there about. Foundation works commenced 2015 towards the end of the year. Early 2016, the first pour of the 1st building was carried out and I go on and on till date.
As I said, KINDLY GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT.
It’s the absolute truth you are spot on.
Why does it look so lonely …
Deserted project 😂🤣😂😂
A country were there is no light, u guys are building towers. U can't go anywhere in lagos bcos of traffic.
Hav u gon tru the transport project goin on
Shame on those who can only like or respect something that has been completed by other people!
Quick to mock and offer criticism when in fact , they are in no position to contribute positively to the change!
A strong and determined army must be ready to fight battles on multiple sides !
That has to be Nigeria’s story!
This city is supposed to help expand land and businesses in Lagos thereby decongesting the city and traffic!
This project is a pioneer in that it would have its own power and water supply built in into its infrastructure!
The idea is that with time, it’s methods applied here would become the template for further construction of estates and district areas in Nigeria !
Your comment is weak , limp and myopic!
Freely vomited from the mouth of a non cerebral mindset!
Bro eko Atlantic City has his own independent power supply which means the light there is unterupted
@@osolobriomohowho9641 .. sure, that is until it breaks down from lack of maintenance or more likely runs out of fuel be it gas or distillate, remember NGC still cannot supply the PHCN stations in the area with the reliable gas supply they require so why should this be any different?
@@andyxox4168 They can rely on clean energy that is increasingly becoming popular like solar panels, dams, windmills etc. And other inventions of energy to power the city would be available.
