Very silly decision on the part of government

I disagree with the decision no Matter what the situation and there were more ways to resolve this than to destroy it but the question is are they even ready for the roads they are talking of or just to destroy someone's business. I love the founder's positive energy and his believe that he will bounce back.How can Africans invest in their own country if their investments won't be safe.Whoever took this decision will never have good sleep 😭

No, and we remember when it was built. The decision is reckless & I’m tired of such actions from the government, smh.

Wode, you better know the facts before you start to post rubbish. He neer owned the beach. His building is still standing there. Don't fall for the victimhood crying and wailing lies. The road will be more beneficial to more Nigerians than the beach. Also, he's not the only one in the area that had their beach from taken away.

Yes, the govt did exactly what needed to be done. You fell for the lies and propaganda. Do your research before posting such rubbish trash in the future. Landmark is still standing, what the govt took away is the beach that he never owned. Is that too hard to understand? Also, what about the other businesses along that area doing the same businesses? Victimhood saleslave mentality has killed this man's business. he's crying wolf for nothing. Majority of Nigerians ar happy about the project except for a few from certain area.

I Know Right! We As Melanated People Still Worship ''Whiteness''

Shit crazy asf

Stop being brainwashed by Wode Maya's deception. Nothing was destroyed.

A very stup1d comment, THEY FOLLOW THE LAWS you clown

Relax he owned the land so he will be compensated for it at ten times the value of the land. It’s just PR like when a ceo sells a company to a bigger corporation gets his 20% of the value of the deal leaves knowing that corporation will immediately fire half the work force, so he leaves with a speech for we are family

Im telling you... The government could have started from Calabar or other places.. after they said it will take 15 years at least to accomplish

Because this man works hard to make his money and wouldn’t give these thieves that gov free money they rather destroy! SICK!

@@davidvalorculkins8218The thing is the project might not even kick off. The so called plan has been lying around for 50 years.

​​@@user-fp5hq5kj2b rubbish Look the people that always defend nepotism..

Most of them can't understand tourism because they're old school. They only know about roads and bridges as far as development goes, they have no idea where they are going though

That's because many of them are sellout and weak men unlike a few like Traore of Burkina Faso and the Niger president, whom the west hates. Many of these African leaders do not want to be on the right side of history, they keep sowing these evil seeds which they'll all reap. Posterity will judge them

No they are just evil and filled with hatred towards hardworking and successful citizens who don’t want to affiliate with them. Most of our politicians can’t fathom how difficult it is to create wealth and be successful because they are corrupt and gain wealth through corruption. So they will destroy your investment or forcibly take it away from you whenever they see you as a threat to their regime.

What's difficult to understand about Greed? African politicians have no shame.

Not too well, obviously.

He should not invest in Nigeria period

Wode is feeding you propaganda. The truth is out there. They know most would be lazy or too busy to find out

they see the future but because it is not their own destruction it's everywhere in africa

@@ngkaruku If he didn't get proper approvals, he as learned as he his wouldn't build there. I pray he rises like a Phoenix from all these. We had our very famous Bar Beach taken over and construction going on to build a so called Eko Atlantic city which is being built by a company run by some influential Lebanese people/ company and supported by the Federal and Lagos state government. For years now, it has been ongoing. How come those structures they are building are not coming down? They are along the same costal line. I think they wanted those businesses gone to make way for them and their cronies. The wickedness and corruption they have is unmatched. They seem to forget that nothing lasts forever and there is Karma. How do you no say, you stop the route because you have now discovered cables are passing through? I have friends and colleagues whose businesses and livelihoods were destroyed and in this our current economy. Many times, we don't understand our so-called leaders and how wicked and destructive they can be. We will continue to do what we can but it is tiring and often demoralizing. The government most times don't genuinely help for anything but then they place heavy taxes, destroy and seem ben on killing people's businesses, dreams and their spirits. Some people might never recover from this destruction. I wish everyone affected the strength to go on.

Go develop onitsha. It is an advice . Arabs did it with dubai. You guys will just be victims for nothing like the cursed sisyphus

I'm not an Igbo person. A Nigerian should have the right to buy and develop properties anywhere in Nigeria. Foreign companies and government like the Chinese own a lot of our resources worth billions of dollars and they may not employ as many people as this business employs.

He Got Paid More Than He Invested. He Is Not Stupid. He Is Too Chill And Not Bothered. Nonsense. He Is A British Man.

Its really sad to see what happened to his business. However, He is calm and not that bothered because he definitely got paid all he invested in the business. I believe the Nigerian government fully compensated the property and business owners around the highway corridor that were affected.

​@@AfricanUSA-th9ovare you sure? I hope so o

No, he did a lot of complaining and gave the world the impression that he was targeted, that he was a victim. Everything he said in Wode's video was just PR...Works Minister, Engineer Dave Umahi met with him twice. When they asked for legal papers for the beach land, he could not produce it. He acquired land though a royal family, not Lagos or federal government. He was not the most affected. There were 4 other beach businesses, all of them were affected. There were royal families that lost miles of beach land, there were communities cut in half or may have to relocate to a different area. In the rank of those who lost land or business, Landmark may not crack the top 10...but he was the one making the MOST NOISE....

People like u are the reasons why African is a cursed place. May ur comment follow every little thing u do​@@user-fp5hq5kj2b

​@@user-fp5hq5kj2bI think you're lying because I saw him grant interviews on channels and Arise Television, and, he did not complain even once. He was repeatedly asked many sensitive questions which he answered with tact and wisdom without complaining even once. Moreover, he said that he was given all the necessary permits by the Lagos state Government. So you are just a bloody liar and an enemy of progress for making these false statements. If I didn't see the Television interviews, I would have believed your lies. Shame on you.!!!

​@@user-fp5hq5kj2b Stop talking rubbish which is why no one has reacted to your lies. Why are you heartless, even if he did all you said do you not have a GOVERNMENT??

​@@user-fp5hq5kj2b low life scum. Maybe your family is the one who destroyed the resort. You're the type that will destroy a fellow Nigerian for a white, Lebanese, Indian or Chinese man

The minister of works' boss, the president, is the actual beast. A white substance dealer by the way. He forfeited over $400k in Chicago in the 90s to the authorities. The construction company handling that project is owned by his Lebanese money launderer. The president's son was recently made a member of board of one of the sister companies to the construction company. That road project that resort was demolished for is being funded illegally to the tune of a wild amount for just a short distance of it. The project didn't go through due process before the president's buddy's construction company mobilised to site. That road project could have been started from the other end to give the business ample time to wind down, but the artificial island project the Lebanese money launderer owns needs to expand, therefore that resort needs to go.

Igbos and victim mentality. How do your parents really raise you guys? So, those other tribes that have far expensive properties destroyed are not human beings?

This is all a strategic collective punishment by Tinubu to the Igbos for daring to shake up the balance of power in Lagos state with their votes in the last election. He targets their properties, their businesses etc. Igbos, learn a lesson, take your investments to your states. Nigeria is like Yugoslavia of 1991 waiting for the ignition.

I agree with you 💯. I'm not an Igbo man but we all know it was because tinubu lost Lagos to Obi.

How about demolitions in Enugu, delta, and Imo? Are Igbos after Igbos. Always claiming victim tribe

@@bolatitoadebayo9528 it's quite pathetic that u have failed to address the truth. If u talk about having problem with other tribes, it is a fact that every tribe in Nigeria is apprehensive of the other. Fulani's detest yoruba's and so do some other tribes. But my point here is that some yoruba's as of late are jealous of igbo's.

This is sad and it's really sad he lost all his investments. However the thing is how do we know what really happened at the very beginning? Normally, government land and planned high ways are clearly documented years and even decades ahead? How did he miss this in his due dilligence ? Or did the civil servants at the lands commission lie to him? Or did the owner pay bribes to acquire the land and building permit, etc. knowing full well it is government land ? In Nigeria and my native Ghana, there's too much indiscipline and many disregard the rules because they can. So until I know the full facts I won't apportion blame. . If he built the resort without due dilligence or after paying bribe, then we can't blame the government for enforcing the law. However those civil servants who granted him building permits, etc under those circumstances need to be brought to account too. Until we start enforcing the rule of law in Africa and people are held to account, nothing will change

@@africanmindsetseries Like you stated, you don't know much about the story. A quick research would have shown you that Landmark was clearly targeted.

After this piece and Delibrate Misleading Narrative on Nigeria🇳🇬 by Wode Maya🇬🇭 I’ve LOST All respect for him..Smh

The Fulanis using their tribe and Islam religion, is the main problem in Nigeria. The British set up the Fulani minority to undermine development in Nigeria. You read in the news about Fulanis terrorizing and grabbing the Yorubas, Igbos lands. The Fulanis are also oppressing the Hausas who are the biggest tribe of Nigeria and also Moslems like the Fulanis!! If Africans were able to condemn the racist White minority in South Africa, then Africans who oppress and kill fellow Africans based on their religion or ethnic group should be vehemently opposed and defeated in their evil towards fellow Africans. The same should apply to the minority Rwandan/Burundian Tutsi Nilo/Cushitic Hamites who have militarily been set up by Britain and USA, to oppress the Bantu majority in Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi and Congo,😮 and have committed genocide on close to 20 million fellow Africans which has been covereup by the West. Kagame and Museveni's extremist Rwandan/Burundian Tutsi Nilo/Cushitic Hamite refugee hegemonists first committed genocide of over 1.5 million on Indigenous Ugandans and tookover the Uganda government which😢 has been covered up by Western governments. Through the West having played up the Rwandan genocide and particularized the Rwanda genocide on only the Tutsis. In order for the West to coverup Museveni, Kagame and their kindred Tutsi refugee first genocide on Indigenous Ugandans and usurpation of the Uganda government in 1986!!

Nothing is sinful; urban regeneration happens by taking down any obstruction.

Educate yourself about issues. 1. 285m of coastal land belongs to Federal government by law. Instead of taking 285m, which should have consumed his entire business, they took only 50m and had to reclaim land from the ocean at additional cost. 2. By law, federal government pays compensation for physical buildings, (not just shanties, or fences with bamboos) but they paid all the same to accommodate all interests. 3. When federal officials met him twice, to provide official documents how he got beach land, he didn't have it. He allegedly bought the beach land from a royal family, not the regular state or federal officials. They just left all that alone because it would become a distraction. 4. There were 4 other beach businesses, royal families that lost miles of land, communities cut in half or may have to resettle in a new area. In the list of those that lost in that community, he may not crack top 10. It was all emotional blackmail and manipulation. The facts of the case are totally different from what is portrayed online

He built on the shore line is that legal? Also he’s charges poor Nigerians $4500 annal fee to use nature. You people love propaganda

Wode Maya made it seem like all his investments were destroyed, which is far from the truth…the Highrises, Hotels, & Major infrastructure were left alone…it was the Cabanas, small stalls & Recreational section on the Shoreline unfortunately were the ones Destroyed.. The Shoreline like in most African Countries belong to the Government

​@Mkym365 it was already said in the video 🙄

Someone should not leave his site/side cos this young man is really hurting on the inside!!!

*Bitter

I feel sorry for the owners but the super highway is more important than the beaches because more than 2 beaches were affected. Well Keep quiet and ask before you judge. The government are building a super highway 🛣️ on the beach ,in fact the construction of the 5lane super highway 🛣️ has started, you Mumu you should mind your business. We do not interfere in ghanas business,so mind your business. And research before you come online to speak nonsense. Ask yourself,how many beaches was affected? Only this man is crying. Other beaches owners are not crying. The super highway 🛣️ construction is already underway . If you’re doubting, search Lagos-Calabar costal road on KZfaq and you should mind your business next time. You’re among the same people that will come online to insult Nigeria that is not developed, now they’re developing it, you still complaining, Are you okay? Well mind your business and drink some water as we fix our city. Hypocrite

Imagine the audacity of the minister Dave Umahi calling the beautiful set up a shanty, and that the businessman is a politician while he, Dave is an engineer. A former governor of Nigeria who did a lot of white elephants` projects with inflated prices saying he is not a politician, but a businessman who has never been into politics is. That's the criminal mindset of a common Nigerian politician.

Jealousy and greed.

You all really sound stupid. Seriously, you all sound stupid. The beach in the first place belongs to the federal government. He had no right to be there in thebfirst place. Secondly the federal government want to open up the whole of that corridor for lotsmof businesses and you people have come here to say way you don't know. The miami coastal road is there. Go and look at what the miami coastal road is like

The hatred, jealousy for IGBOS baffles me!!! The man will rise again. Igbos never give up, they patriotic, resilient, tenacious, ambitious, strong minded, brave warriors, and never give up. He will come back stronger. Arise and shine brother...

Ignorance, no emotions here, nothing like jealousy; Landmark is not the only business affected.

@@abimbolaoyeneye6661 first of all, why use ignorance? If landmark isn't the only business affected, I should be asking you the revenue of other businesses and the comparisons. You should be worried about YOUR IGNORANCE hiding under the umbrella tree of coastal line development! Bitches!!! Watch Landmark, give him just two more years. Nonsensical and idiocracy human being like you! Do you think, you and your sycophant can demolish a Great person? Or do you think, you and your cohorts, can dehumanize a person who's already BIGGER THAN YOU? May God grant you more years to see wonders of landmark...

Don't risk your money in places like Nigeria. There are much better African countries.

@koolaidcharlie3320. Me too my friend. Very scary.

Exactly

WODE while I applaud your efforts in promoting general aspects of Africa I take issue with some of your misleading headlines or at best incomplete headlines in this case not stating the reasons for the demolition which is to provide a supper highway from Lagos to calabar..I agree with Steven Ndukwa that alternative options should have been explored but not stating the reason give the impression that this is a random and frequent occurrence in Nigeria and would scare potential future investors away conflicting with your aim of promoting Africa

Invest in Nigeria, there are many people making money in Nigeria, you can't condemn the whole country because of this one issue, I know many haters will capitalize on this demolition, painting Nigeria black, but Invest wisely and you will definitely benefit greatly, there thousands of investors in Nigeria.
