The much talked about Mega city project kicks off today, 21st February, 2013. The Eko Atlantic City is to be launched today by the Governor of Lagos State, Barrister at law, Babatunde Fashola (SAN). He is to be supported by our own very amiable president of the federal republic of Nigeria, Goodluck Jonathan (GCFR) and past president of the United State of America, Bill Clinton. E kaa bo (We welcome you)
The imagery that pervades this project is highly sublime and so lofty. It shows a perfect state where there is no hustle and bustle; serenity and a virtual state of excellence. One cannot cease to wonder if this is what is presently in Lagos.
The Governor has really transformed the state immensely (thanks to all of us that are heavily taxed) and he has great ambitions still. However, what is not right is robbing Peter to pay Paul. We cannot neglect certain areas within this same state and claim we are building a metropolitan city. Just take a visit to some of the core locations in Lagos and.... I leave that to your judgment.
Well, back to Eko Atlantic!!! For the Island workers today, it is gonna be traffic galore. All roads will certainly be closed down.(I so pity myself). It would be a bad memory for the coming investors to be locked down by our trademark,"bumper2bumper". Clinton and uncle Jonah cannot afford to be held in such undignified traffic jams. They can be exempted and spared the hassles. What of the 'REAL TAX PAYERS'? Who gives a damn! We can all rot in traffic jam. All of us will be herded probably towards western avenue through Falomo or some 'lungu' around Ikoyi!
Anyway sha, I congratulate all of us in Lagos. GidiMetro wishes us all a happy Atlantic City opening. Just call your loved ones that you might be coming home late today. We always know how to make ourselves happy. #Gala!!!!! gimmie two#
Have a great day folks!
