Land that used to cost about N180 million in Eko Atlantic in the early 2000s is now worth over N2 billion, according to the third edition of the State of the Lagos Housing Market report.
TheTalk.NG reported that Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, announced plans to move the headquarters of his industrial empire to Eko Atlantic City, Lagos.
The billionaire made this known while speaking at the groundbreaking ceremony for FirstBank’s new eco-friendly headquarters in Eko Atlantic City earlier this year.
Eko Atlantic, officially Nigeria’s International Commerce City, also known as Eko Atlantic City, is a planned city in Lagos State, Nigeria, being constructed on land reclaimed from the Atlantic Ocean.
Upon completion, the new peninsula is expected to host at least 250,000 residents and a daily flow of 150,000 commuters.
