Enugu is one of the West African cities Landmark Africa decided to expand to after its multi-million- dollar beach resort was demolished in Victoria Island Lagos. Onwuanibe noted that the 150-hectare Nike Lake Resort comes with possibilities that are limitless, describing the resort as the tourism platform of the Southeast.
As painful as the demolition of the Lagos beach resort was and still is, Onwuanibe sees both blessing and opportunity in the action. He says, “if our properties weren’t demolished, maybe we wouldn’t even be going through some of this exponential growth by now; maybe we wouldn’t have had calls from different African presidents or had the opportunity to sit with state governors.
Also, we wouldn’t have thought deeply on how to expand and diversify to other locations, and we wouldn’t have been able to touch lives of people all over West Africa. We would have been touching the lives of people only within Lagos.”
