Special Adviser to Lagos State Governor on Drainage and Water Resources, Joe Igbokwe, has said that All Progressive Congress leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, enriched Igbo people with Lekki real estate idea.
He said he showed them the potential of what has now become a prime are when no one saw the advantage.
Igbokwe said in a Facebook post:
“In those days Lekki corridor was begging for attention. Nobody saw the potentials of that investment hub. Nobody thought Lekki will be what it is today.
“Asiwaju saw the real potentials and began to speak to some people to take a look at that side of Lagos and invest there for tomorrow.
“Asiwaju spoke to some of his Igbo friends in Lagos and told them that LEKKI will be the new Lagos anytime soon. He told them: “If you have the money go and buy property there and you will not regret it”.
“Asiwaju knows what he is talking about because he, himself, has been a real estate guru for years.
“Those Igbo boys and other Nigerians who took his advice are smiling big time today. They are big-time multi-billionaires and their property keeps appreciating everyday. ASIWAJU BAT sees tomorrow.”
