Singapore’s TSC Global and Nigeria’s Del-York Group Seal $4.5 Billion Deal to Build Lagos Film City

In a landmark moment for Africa’s creative and tech industries, Singapore’s TSC Global and Nigeria’s Del-York Group have signed a $4.5 billion t venture agreement, marking the largest investment in Africa’s creative sector to date. The g ceremony, held in Singapore and attended virtually by Lagos State Governor, His Excellency Babajide Sanwo-Olu, heralds the development of Lagos Film City (Kebulania), a project poised to position Lagos as a global hub for film, media, and technology.

“Lagos Film City (Kebulania) represents Lagos State’s vision for creative excellence and technological innovation,” remarked Sanwo-Olu. “This investment will transform our creative landscape while creating groundbreaking opportunities for our talented youth. This development demonstrates our commitment to positioning Lagos as Africa’s premier creative capital.”

He credited Nigeria’s President Bola Tinubu’s leadership and the state’s Creative Industry Policy for facilitating this transformative partnership.

Under the new partnership, TSC Global will bring its expertise in sustainable, high-performance technical infrastructure, an area where the company is known globally. Linus Idahosa, CEO of Del-York Group, serves as the lead developer of the project and is dedicated to building ecosystems that fuel Africa’s creative industry. A Memorandum of Understanding was signed with the Lagos State Government in 2022, and a groundbreaking ceremony was held at the Epe site last year. Architectural work will begin in early 2025, followed by construction in the second quarter.

“Today marks Africa’s emphatic entry into global creative and technological leadership,” said Idahosa at the g ceremony. “Kebulania stands as a testament to what is possible when visionary leadership at both national and state levels creates an enabling environment for transformative investments. With the unwavering of the Lagos State Government, alongside our partners, we are building more than an infrastructure – we are creating a legacy that will empower generations of African creators and innovators.”

Michael Dickerson, CEO of TSC Global, highlighted the strategic significance: ‘Our $4.5 billion t Venture bridges Africa and the world, creating unparalleled opportunities for creative and technological collaboration between continents. Together with the Del-York Group, we are creating a new model for creative industry development that will resonate globally.”

The Kebulania project is expected to generate over 10,000 direct jobs and 25,000 indirect employment opportunities, contributing more than $3.5 billion annually to Nigeria’s creative economy. It will also offer 50,000 training positions and boost foreign exchange earnings through international film and media productions.

And after they’ve started building it tomorrow, you’ll switch to una usual poem - how FG is building Lagos..

Shame on you, it will materialize and your negativity can do nothing about it.

Lagos la'gba. Yorubas to the world abeg, we are all doing well. If I wasn’t Yoruba, I’d be jealous of Yorubas. I’d be jealous of their language, I’d be jealous of their creativity, I’d be jealous of their ingenuity, I’d be jealous of their wealth, I’d be jealous of their unity, I’d be jealous of Lagos, Osun, Ogun, Ondo, Oyo, Ekiti and lastly Kwara States. God bless all the Yorubas doing us proud. God bless the legitimate hustle of every Yoruba person. God bless Nigeria. 👏🏽🤲🏾

Just a reminder that we are not mates

A lot of regions are pulling Yorubaland backwards

We need to return to the regional system of government

Yorubas are visionary and development oriented

God bless Yorubaland

This is Lagos not Abia or Anambra. Positivity is not prohibited in the South West.

Some Haters are very desperate. They pray everyday for Lagos to move backwards but God doesn't answer such prayers

Yes oo, we don't force people to sit at home here

I tell you bro. Regionalism is the way. It will help the west a lot. The west did really well during regionalism..

Abia that is a clueless state

Imagine coming up with a budget of over N500bn for 2024 and only being able to do an IGR of only N22bn from January to September while hoping that the rest of Nigeria will raise money for them through FAAC

Even Osun and Ekiti state had higher IGRs than Abia

Funny most if you see them at the train station in marina rushing in gra gra, you will be shocked these are they same people who criticized the project, bros, the way they rushes in gidigbo style is dangerous, both men and women, I can't let someone come and blow my jaw because I want to enter train to beat traffic, if you are not careful, they will injure you seriously, they run in with full force like elephant on full speed, I'm not exaggerating

Your fathers said more than this when the factories and infrastructure in Lagos were being built.

Have you forgotten how you were bleating when Lekki Free Trade Zone started?

Instead of them to bring Investors in Agriculture/Poultry and fisheries ,Large Massive Fertile Land stretches across the Nation .

Misplaced Priorities.

Nigerians Needs Food , It would boost Economy when we have Abundance and Also Export. Employment and Food Availability

Good

Lamba

Yeah just like red line and blue line...dimwitted tumoured brain

Very nice in pictures, but let's see it actualise.

If it does actuallise, when it does, all the under bridge dwellers so called owners of Lagos and poor folk who lives in poor and ghetto areas would be evicted. Infact, in the end only wealthy people could afford to live in Lagos.

Take lagosians out from the street/slum before thinking on building a billion dollar film industry.

That's money thrown into dustbin , but we all know what is behind this so-called investors. Land grabbing from locals)

chagory brothers and Tinubu family did more than this to take over Lagos lands (Banana island) and Eko Atlantic.

The negativity some of you emit is nauseous: you went from cynicism of "let's see it actualise" to another layer of negativity; "in the end only wealthy people could afford to live in Lagos". Nawao

Stop being emotional. Some of us actually lives in reality rather than emotional, you can call it what you want.

Yes, if what i see in that picture is ever built in Lagos i repeat only wealthy people could afford to live in Lagos in the end. That is even already happening now, it is the price people pay as a result of development. Lagos today is not the Lagos of 30 years ago.

Why do you think there are homeless people in New York, Paris and London?

Believe it or not. Be realistic mate! It is not negativity, then again, what would you know about development. why would i be negative about a development that would benefit me financially?

You SW guys have allowed Obidients to turn you into tribalists.

This is not you, man.

Yorubas are nationalists. Patriots.

Awo, Beko, Gani, Fela, Soyinka, Tai Solarin, Ige, Falana.

You’re bigger than this tribalist stuff. Don’t let IPOB and Obidients drag you down to their level.

It's name is Lagos, not Yoruba land. Tell me any other sw state doing big things. The answer is zero

It's disappointing to see this, but it will happen, and your negativity won't change that.

If MOUs were the standard for measuring a country's GDP, Nigeria's GDP would be closer to South Korea's rather than the measly $199 billion closer to Ethiopia's.

Nigerians need to be realistic about their development. What is the status of the $100 million Epe film city?
