Throw Back Wednesday! Who Can Relate With This Face Me I Face You Brouhaha by EriMma1: 10:29am On Apr 12, 2023
Just saw this hilarious throwback on face me I face you house.

My own experience.

Omor, my own experience living in one during my university days. I was the aunty that speaks good English and mind my business and the people hated me for it.

One mama would always boast of how they moved in when the rent was 70 naira, abi na 700 naira sha , can't remember. And the list goes on lol.... Thank God for delivering me from there. After school, I japa..

Share your experience.

A THROW BACK ON FACE ME I FACE YOU GUYS. WHO CAN RELATE?
LET GO!.

1. It’s sometimes called Face Me I slap you due to the incessant fights daily. E ma ja ju. If you don’t fight, someone will fight you. You must fight. "Ta lo gbe omi ti mo pon sibi?" (Ija de).
2. You can never go hungry unless you don’t know your way around. Enter the kitchen at the backyard and start whining who’s cooking. Drop small gist about another neighbor, walahi waa jeun ju. Gbenusi no be atenu.

Output - Gbeborun
Input - Food
3. There’s always that man who will claim he has been living in the house before the house was even built. They are always proud of the years they have lived there. They know everyone and when they were given birth to. (Ancestor Tenant)

I'm telling you.
That generator is the worst. You'll see neighbors fighting because of this issue.
Thanks for sharing.

Some here go wan form like say Dem never live face me I face you before. It's all a phase of life. Nothing to be ashamed of.

I don experience alot, no be small thing ooo...

My four family house at obalende still remain the same till now, just litte alteration, alot of people in obalende are afraid to rebuild their house because, there's a matter in court by tinubu that since that place is ikoyi, obalende should also get the ambiance of banana island, so nobody wants to build and then tomorrow, they will come and demosh it, not even now that tinubu is now the president.....

My mother family house have been rebuilt to nice flat....

LoL... You too? Wow! 👀. Ok it was your gramps house. I see. So those houses then were face me I face you? I never knew that such houses exist until my uni days.

Why would Tinubu take over Obalende area? Dont the owners of the lands there have C of O? I don't understand. You the children should fight for it jor. Ah ah.. what?
You people should demolish the old houses yourselves and erect new structures before they start their madness. It's not fair na.

No wonder I still see some very old houses in that Obalende. You know Tinubu too was born in that Obalende on one street under that 3rd mainland bridge close to roundabout bustop. That's where he grew up. If you go there now, you'll still see their family house.

Hope you too experienced those fighting and quarrelling in the compound? grin. It's not easy o my brother.

Thanks for sharing dear

Lol, sure, C of O dey now...

Fight for family house? I'm just a grand children, it is left to dad and her siblings to do so....

What tinubu want to do is to do an ediface like banana Island, and then give people like us that have 4family houses like 3bedroom flat to share with family and siblings, and people are not comfortable with the idea...

Is just like cheating the family...


For the fight and quarrels in the compound, in every face me I slap you, unah go fight now, me why I be landlord piking, wetin you expect, enough beefing and a lot...

But, it was fun living in such environment, if you live in that environment and you no sharp, forget it, they need to go to the river to wash your head ooo

LoL.. true about the beefing. Yeah you gats wise up after living in such apartment.

3 bedroom is not enough compensation for lands and properties owned by families for decades. Its pure cheating.

I remember when FG took over 1G4 building at VI back then. It wasn't funny as many people were displaced with no forms of compensation given to them. I just hope Obalende will not end up like that.
