You are spot on but lemme add this. If you look closely, you will see a sea wall being built by Eko Atlantic from the back of Eko Atlantic City and reclamation is presently ongoing. They are trying to extend Eko Atlantic City to the end of the sea wall. All the beaches along that corridor will be reclaimed. So whether Landmark gives the right of way or not? The beach view will disappear soonest. The reclamation is already close to Landmark Beach. In fact, I think Eko Atlantic motivated the president to start the road project because they have a project along that corridor. Plus Lagos state government is interested too because of the green rail line they are planning. The rail tracks will be used for the green line.

This Comment is very insightful. Although, are you sure they intend on sand-filling that area as well? To me, It seems like a massive wave breaker to prevent further ocean encroachment around the Oniru axis, And behind Eko Atlantic.

The sand filling goes on there every single day. If you look at the Eko Atlantic plan from day one it includes all that area. Oniru knows, Landmark knows, Good beach are also aware the beachfront will be gone eventually. It was approved by Obasanjo administration of federal govt maybe they landmark was hoping Eko Atlantic would become an abandoned project. It's a gamble that didn't work out as hoped. He has squeezed as much as he can from the gamble but I guess this is where it could stretch to. He's only losing the beachfront afterall

All fueled by greed

Great Analysis...but the ending. Key points... Tribalism does not dictate this project, it spans across many states. The GOVERNMENT across the world should make decisions that least affect the PEOPLE, businesses come second. As in this case too. The government on behalf of the people own "setbacks", and cannot be sued for what belongs to them. On this occasion... It is the beach. The best possible way to resolve any issue such as this, has always been to minimise the impact on ordinary people and the public purse. This project was agree as an international West African obligation by a different government (PDP) long ago, but has not been implemented as other countries have. The project will be connected to Badagry Expressway leading to Republic of Benin... And the rest of West Africa. The project has powerful economic incentive for Nigeria as a whole. One Company cannot be entirely preserved at the expense of so many residential and commercial buildings. Landmark main buildings will not be affected... Using your analysis, they will still have their hotels. All the planning permissions are for buildings...Not for the permanent use of the beach. After the coastal road is done, some proper pristine ocean beach should be demanded by the people... Ones where ordinary people can visit with their families, free of charge with only charges for the car parks, to be maintained by Lagos State. Other countries have free-beaches. EKO ATLANTIC PHASE 2, planned over a decade ago, will be engulfing "landmark beach" in any case with tall buildings, and their particular "sand-filling" can be clearly seen far across the water. And finally, Nigerians should stop thinking that every problem is Tribe or Party related.

Where exactly did the presenter talk about TRIBALISM?? You brought tribe into this conversation. So why not take the advise that you are giving out first. Also Let me ask you this. You said, “one company cannot be entirely preserved at the expense of so many residential and commercial buildings”. How does the win-win scenarios narrated here or earlier proposed by CEO amount to “at the expense of anybody”. Don’t you know what a WIN WIN SCENARIO IS? Like, What is even wrong with you guys? And lastly, How does a CEO answering questions from concerned investors both home and abroad amount to BLACKMAILING the Govt?? How??? Is he supposed to ignore the invites to those interviews? His investors are concerned and he is doing the right thing without antagonizing the Govt. He has been asking for the Govt to explore the WIN WIN scenarios to this- considering the number of lives that will be impacted. The other properties impacted do not have the same level of societal impact that Landmark has. Landmark touches 16k lives directly and indirectly. 16k families will be impacted. Don’t you agree that that should be considered over a building impacting only a few families?

@@efozia.o6750 You asked: "Where exactly did the presenter talk about TRIBALISM?? " Well, nobody said the presenter spoke about tribalism... so why are you asking this question??? However unless you have been living under a rock you will know that certain groups of people have been spreading the triblalism card on this project. Every single thing and they will cry "tribalism": "Oh, they are only demolishing houses of people from certain tribes, bla bla bla"

Although this might be speculative, the other angle you never explore is the vested interests of the Eko Atlantic owners that owns the construction company undertaking the Lagos end of the coastal road. Also, the Chagoris owns the two Kuramo Water Towers that is not affected by the coastal road. All these vested interests are linked. All considered, thanks for a job well done and nice presentation.

Anywhere the Lebanese and Indians are story full ground

1. The beachfront wasn't allocated to anyone and WILL always Belong to FG. 2. The old plan was a 2 lane road. While this new one is a 10 lane superhighway and needs more space than water corporation drive can accommodate. 3. They are including a railline and trains don't do well on sharp bends as will be the case if they follow landmarks suggestions. 4. Its a tolled road and WC drive is already serving as alternative no tolled route

This is the most educative and sensible clip I ve seen on the construction of this road, even though, understandably, he is using it to promote his estate investment. However I ve my reservation about his personal opinion which formed the concluding part but he is entitled to it.

Thanks so much for this detailed video. The knowledge sharing is very impactful. I can envisage government planning a new set of habitats by land filling to create another shore line when the road is done.. Landmark may begin negotiations of a portion of that shoreline that may be connected to the main building by tunnel or overhead pedestrian bridge across the coastal road. Like Landmark suggested,government should also consider delaying cutting off the business till the last stage of the project.

@razaaqsanusi5864

Ай бұрын

To delay at whose cost, God forbid,

Educational video and analysis. But why not put up a flyover all the way down and use alternatives so that the real estate market and businessrs could be protected. Just My opinion

Thanks for an EXCELLENT job outlining the Coastal Highway route and its possible impact on properties and projects in the area. I really don't see why the road should not adhere with the original alignment BEHIND Landmark. From my observation, in that area where it was 'pinched', there appear to be only 2 main structures. While admittedly the main BUILDINGS at Landmark are untouched, the 'essence' of that project is the beach so constraining or eliminating them does grave harm to the business. It is entirely avoidable.

My brother, your analysis states it clearly. Landmark should continue speaking their truth bcs it is obvious. The lagos state can decide to do the right thing or go south. But we are watching, and learning.

@razaaqsanusi5864

Which truth has Landmark said, there's no iota of truth in what he said. He should be bold enough to tell Nigerians that the beach does not belong to him and he does not have title over it, Imagine renting and collecting money on land facing the beach for which he has title, whipping up sentiments. Let him go to court , am sure with facts and evidences he will not do that.

This will affect foreigner coming in to invest in the country.

Pushing the coastal road further by land reclamation still takes away the beach view which is part of the attraction. I believe its best if the road stays behind landmark beach on its previously marked route. Its also good that it starts from lagos especially from that ahmadu bello rd; as people affected know on time because thats a commercial hub.

@consog5438

You are spot on but lemme add this. If you look closely, you will see a sea wall being built by Eko Atlantic from the back of Eko Atlantic City and reclamation is presently ongoing. They are trying to extend Eko Atlantic City to the end of the sea wall. All the beaches along that corridor will be reclaimed. So whether Landmark gives the right of way or not? The beach view will disappear soonest. The reclamation is already close to Landmark Beach. In fact, I think Eko Atlantic motivated the president to start the road project because they have a project along that corridor. Plus Lagos state government is interested too because of the green rail line they are planning. The rail tracks will be used for the green line.

I really love your analysis but I want to say that the designer of the road is guided by some rules for geometric design of the road in as much as avoiding the destruction is important. I am saying this because I am a civil engineering graduate who have done few designs of road. The shift we're talking about from buildings some can not be avoided because they're minimum amd maximum requirements for the straight sections, curves and transition points of the roads. Those who do not know about this will just fault them for taking some certain route and not bending the road to avoid the destruction. They're a lot of stuff put into consideration. Most road project have several variants which at the end a multiple cateria analysis is done to decide the most important factor for choosing the best variant such as cost, number of building to destroy.
