You need to look at the other part too

Someone who paid just 200k to insure a house can collect as much as 20million if the house is gut by fire.

So it's not just collecting premium claims are being paid in huge amount

Exactly my man...

I think Ambode is losing focus. People can nearly survive in this Buhari apc government and all he can think of is to add more suffering. This apc government is pure evil

Marketing tenant go suffer it most cos it will bring more hardship to the citizen... Automatic increase in house rent and price of landed properties in the state
exactly

(landlord) we buy the land,
pay omoniles for foundation, German floor, decking, roofing, even for fencing
we fill the street,
construct drainage,
erect Electrical poles,
pay "Nepa"/buy cables for them to run Street light, even contribute to buy oil, fuses, repair spoilt transforms / buys new transformers
dug boreholes,
have/pay for our street security

how has the government compensate us
levy for this / that...
resent permit for/to erect borehole ask those buying water from "water tanks", the prize recently went up last because of this issue (water Corporation is just on paper collecting funds yearly for nothing)
you will pay FG levy, Lagos will come for their's, LG will tell you to pay also

and you think rent will not go up

This is the best policy I ve seen Ambode on in recent times.
We need to put our insurance company into business, not take them out.
I hope the FG can also deal with quacks in the vehicle insurance policy so that we deal with recognised private insurance companies.

I hope this policy will apply to all properties in Lagos cos some land owners got their title from the FG. Except the LASG can use regularisation to cut their slack and implement this policy

Now I believe that AMbode have a great vision for Lagos state unlike that useless on my state

Thank God for insurance in Nigeria now for the great improvement unlike 2000-2006 Insurance companies.

I know that many will COMPLAIN or reject this... But at the end, they will enjoy it... go to advance country, u can't see a building with insurance cover there....

Lagos, Nation of afonja, Develop by developer
Most developed countries provided the basic ammenties needed for their citizens to develop and grow. Ambode is yet to do that.

Lagos state government is always looking for ways to milk people dry. Few weeks ago they billed each house in my estate #10,000 each doing nothing. Eko o nigbaje my foot.

If you don't know how insurance work just ask.

I never said the house is 200k maybe you should read again.

What I said is someone PAID 200k to INSURE a house.

That's why they have valuers. If your house isn't worth 20 million, nobody will give you 20 million

U lack knowledge about insurance

If you understand the benefit of having comperensive Insurance on your car.. Then u will knw that for house, its Important... Some pple are doing it before government implement it

Come look many building that collapse this days, where so u think the owner will start.... Its for their own safety..


Oga, forget that one joooor. It shouldn't be a compulsory thing. After the govt must have sensitized people about the scheme. It's up to people to go for it. Only a few will understand that the government is trying to help which is not their fault but due to how our government have been corrupt, they would think they have come to scam them again.

The value of the house determines the premium you will pay. If you decide to value a 10M building @ 100M you will be shooting urself in the foot cos you be paying 10times of wat you should pay.

If its my house then it should be optional. Nobody forced u to do it but Lagos govt wants to force people.

It is a good plan anyway.But such insurance is not something you force on people.Even here in abroad such insurance policy is never force on individuals.But if Ambrose government force it on people then there is something to it.
Re: Ambode To Introduce Compulsory Insurance Policy For All Buildings In Lagos by naijacarz(m): 8:35am On Apr 14, 2017
If you own your own home, you’ll need to have buildings cover just in case your home is damaged and needs a repair. It’s usually a condition of your mortgage and, if you’re a landlord, it’s your responsibility – not your tenants. Although it’s not compulsory, if you own your own home this sort of insurance should be a top priority

For your info Lagos Govt is not collecting a dime. They are only providing a platform for the insurance companies, like every sane society will do to protect its people.

Insurance is a life saver, ignorance can kill.....

The people are about to be further improvished.


A landlord with tenant will pass the extra cost to the tenants.


Now what happens to an old pensioner whose pension is being owed and lives from hand to mouth in a house he built 20yrs ago? So government will send him to jail for inability to insure his 3bedroom apartment?

If you don't know about insurance, why not ask rather than showing your ignorance. It's so easy to comment but rather seek knowledge before commenting.
