Krucifax: You're right in some aspects. Especially on the growth potential one. I've seen some, while others, I've seen on papers and online. The future looks promising. That said, I wish we'll be happy about everything Nigeria. Be the investment in Lagos, Abuja, Calabar, Enugu or Kano. I just want to see us grow. Wonder why some people are so bent on detracting. 1 Like |

I agree with Dollyak. Comparing Lagos and Abuja is like comparing Newyork to DC -- Dem no be mates and will never be when it comes to economic viability. Most progressive countries have an Abuja and a Lagos -- Brasilla (capital city) for example can't match Sao Paulo (economic capital), Pretoria and Cape Town can't match Johannesburg. Abuja by design can't be as economically viable as Lasgidi, period,though it will continue to develop owing to its position as FCT. Lagos can survive independently without Federal allocation (its IGR trumps over 31 states put together! And if it was a country today it would have the 6th largest economy in Africa). Lag has over 2000 industries besides many other thousands of service industry coys that make it a perennial magnet while the FCT is only viable for govt/administrative bizness. Even all the bank HQs and other coys OBJ forced to move to Abj from Lag had to retrace their steps. It's just what it is. cc: krucifax 5 Likes |

We still have same issues in ikoyi, and some parts of lekki too. Uninhabited houses all because of unreasonable rent meanwhile many workers travel all the way from Ogun state to work in these places. If the rents can be brought down to a reasonable amount, people will rather live just a few blocks away from their place of work hence it will reduce the wasted hours spent in traffic and also help to stop the terrible idea of jumping out of bed by 4:30am. Yuck! 1 Like |

[quote author=jimi4us post=45257577]I've been to Ikoyi , lekki and VI. But I have never see anything like Abuja empty houses. Millions of houses are completely built but nobody to buy them or even rent them. The developers there are so greedy. Somewhere in maitama (ministers hill) a duplex go for N2.5billion. Scary world out there. [/quote #2.5bn a month, a year, 4yrs or forever. Incomplete information |

Continue deluding yourself with irrelivant epistles. Lagos has pre colonial developmental history. Go and read pls. Again, i live and do business in abuja and i can tell u that 80% of commercial life of abuja depend on lagos. 10% east and the rest from other states. Virtually nothing is produced here except breads. Stop being sentimental pls. Krucifax: 6 Likes |

Adekorya: You make opaque suggestions.....don't know who you roll with please change your ways of thinking......everywhere in Nigeria should be made viable,attractive for whoever want to settle in. Is Abuja the only city in Nigeria? If Abuja is economically viable apart from politics it will boom,it is already booming and no right thinking individual will go pay high rent when he or she can afford to build a house. Think . |

mandax:Abuja, like other planned capital cities such as Washington, DC, Canberra, and Brasilia were all planned to be administrative cities. The idea is to allow the 'secondary' cities serve as hubs for manufacturing and trade ie Detroit, New York (USA), Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo (Brazil), Lagos, Aba, Kano, Onitsha etc. But I agree that Abuja should be made more affordable to people that aren't millionaires or billionaires. 1 Like |

Adekorya:There's an international airport in Abuja, so that is not the problem. They have moved almost everything to Abuja yet not much has changed and the reason is because there is a deliberate effort to make sure Abuja remains for the rich. So they keep locking the middle class and poor out of Abuja so that it does not turn to another Lagos. The moment government makes a concerted effort to reduce the absurd cost of land and property in Abuja, then Abuja will become more than a capital and it will give Lagos a run. 1 Like |

The majority of the empty houses are owned by politicians like dino and saraki. So nothing productive should be expected from thr committees review. Except buhari puts his foot down and orders that the house be rented out within a definate duration of time. |

Mega City of empty houses, for Agama lizards and security gatemen. They cannot hide proceeds from procurement scams in banks so they launder it in buildings, since the purchase of property and building materials is not monitored. Some freshly employed graduates do "meet me at junction", whenever you want to visit them, so as to avoid explaining how they own flats in high brow areas. They claim it is for their children's future; children that will eventually disappear abroad, and not give a damn. 1 Like |

Trust me if those houses were built from loans secured from banks people would have been living in them, this is just a clear indication and picture of stolen funds been put to use. Trust me the worse is yet to come keep hiking ur rent and the only occupants you would get will cockroaches and lizards. 4 Likes |
